With a sea of new hunting products to choose from, where do you even start looking for a gift for Dad? We have some suggestions to point you in the right direction.

Finding the perfect hunting gift for Father's Day can be tough. There are so many options out there and being pointed in too many directions can lead to the dreaded analysis paralysis. Don't get stuck wading through gifts he might not like.

We’ve tested the best hunting gear on the planet and as hunters, we know the stuff we’re planning on treating our dads to this Father's Day.

These aren't all of our favorite options, but they are a solid selection of some of our favorite hunting gifts for Dad.

The Polaris NorthStar The 60 QT NorthStar is a rotomolded cooler with 2 inches of insulation and an airtight gasket around the lid to trap in the cold. It can retain ice for up to a week in extreme heat, which is pretty impressive. The cooler has bear-resistant features for the dad who likes to play outside in bear country … or for the bear hunter.

The KUIU PRO Brush Pant is the indestructible hunting pant option your dad needs. The reinforced legs keep brush, briar, thorns, and the like from destroying your legs when ripping through rugged terrain. They’re great for upland hunting and really stand up to whatever you throw at them in the backcountry.

If your dad hunts in arid habitats filled with cactus and plants that bite, he’ll appreciate the brush pant in ways we can't describe. They hold their own in just about any environment and will certainly win you the Father's Day Gift of the Year Award.

Montana Knife Company has exploded onto the scene in a big way over the past year. If you’ve tried to get your hands on one of their knives, you know that first-hand. If you aren't quick to the draw, they’ll sell out before you can even find your wallet.

Fortunately, you can get your hands on The Blackfoot for Father's Day. If your dad is a knife nut, he’ll be giddy to get a MKC knife in hand. The Blackfoot is a do-it-all knife that is just at home caping as it is quartering.

This little Snowflake Archery tool gadget is borderline silly, but it works. I know because I bought one as a semi-joke and now it lives with my gear. It's just handy. It has every little archery tool you can ask for in a tiny little package.

You can insert all the snowflake jokes you want, but the results just speak for themselves. It's these quirky little finds that end up being our favorites. Get one for your dad if he's an archery hunter. He might not get it at first, but I promise you — he’ll dig it.

The Glerups Wool Boot is the ultimate camp shoe. As I sit here writing this gift guide, I have this exact pair on my feet. They are insanely comfortable, warm, and so easy to slip on and off. With the natural rubber sole, I’ve worn them by the fire and all over camp.

For later-season hunts, I will no longer be wearing my typical camp shoe (you know the one … with the holes). I’ve worn these in wet grass, mud, and rainy conditions and my feet are always comfortable, dry, and warm. They’re a dream to slip into after taking off a heavy pair of hunting boots. Dads who appreciate comfort will love these.

The Gunner Food Crate is one of these products I didn't fully understand until I had my hands on one. This thing is overkill in the best way. It's rugged and dang-near indestructible. It isn't a lightweight option for toting food, but it will keep all manner of critters out.

We have issues with mice getting into the dog food at camp. That is an issue of the past. It's air- and water-tight and though it is a bit of a luxury buy, it's one you can use for a lifetime. We love ours and if your dad is also a dog dad, he’ll love having one, too.

This is one of those knives that gets handed down. The Peach Seed Jig Amber Bone Trapper Knife from Case is a beautiful folder with a real bone handle. It has two folding blades and options to customize the knife in ways that will fit any dad's tastes. A knife is always a safe bet for Father's Day, and this one would make a great gift for just about any dad.

This is the hunting boot for dads that love to move. The Under Armour HOVR Dawn Waterproof boot is built much more like an athletic shoe than a true hunting boot. With a brand name like UA, that only makes sense.

Where these things really shine is comfort. They feel like basketball shoes. They’re lightweight and comfortable, and for those dads who aren't keen on a heavy overwhelming boot, this is a really good option. They sport more cushion than your typical hunting boot and will make Dad's day in the field just a touch comfier. What dad wouldn't love that?

The RX-Fulldraw 5 from Leupold is the rangefinder every bow hunter needs. I didn't realize what I was missing until I had this thing in hand. It does so much more than just find your range. This rangefinder is capable of being customized with your bow and specs, allowing you to dial in your arrow's flight path. It's wildly accurate.

If your dad is a bowhunting nut who has every archery gizmo under the sun, this might be the gift to outdo all others. It's the dream rangefinder for bowhunting.

This cellular-enabled trail cam from Moultrie Mobile takes a lot of the hassle out of getting quality trail cam pictures. With multi-network connectivity, this is a camera that should work just about anywhere that has the slightest bit of signal.

Your dad won't have to trek out to pull SD cards to see what trophies have crossed into his spot. He can sit back and check the activity from his phone without even leaving the house. If your dad loves hunting with a camera as much as he does during big game season, the Edge Cam will make his Father's Day a memorable one.

Father's Day is coming up on June 18. Don't let it sneak up on you! We've got a pile of Father's Day gifts for dads who love to fish. Read more…
