We have arrived at the final part of the hunting series and this week we are going to discuss UTVs and hunting.

UTV is a multipurpose vehicle. It is comfortable as a farmer’s sidekick, as a hunter’s accompanist and even as a touring vehicle in tourist spots. If you have visited the Hawaii-Kualoa ranch (the site of Jurassic Park movies), you would have noticed quite a few UTVs carrying visitors back and forth.

Is it no wonder then that hunters who like to go in groups prefer UTVs over any other vehicle?

Here are the benefits of a UTV

1. Multiple Passengers

Whether it is family or friends, UTV’s can carry more passengers than any other utility vehicle. Depending on the UTV that you purchase, they come with two, three, four or six seats.

2. Safety Features

UTVs come equipped with seat-belts that can ensure the safety of the group as the vehicle navigate through tough terrains. However, the safety feature that is a highlight for many buyers is the roll cage, which provides safety in case of a rollover.  The latest models are made with light but sturdy steel that, besides offering protection, keeps the weight of the vehicle lighter.

3. Comfort Ride

The adventurous types take their UTVs up steep hills, heavy forested areas and even dunes, and nothing can stop these monsters. But that doesn’t mean that the ride will be tough like the landscape. The suspension of UTVs is made to withstand rough and tough situations while providing comfort to the passengers. Also, the cabs come with options like A/C and heater.

4. Space and accessories

UTV comes with different size and space options that can meet your hunting needs, like space to store guns or camping gear and accessories like gun holders, racks to secure the game while driving back to the camp etc.

GMT Recommends

Here are two UTVs that GMT recommends for your hunting needs

1. Defender XMR

Built exclusively for the North American landscape, this power horse can handle tough situations like muskeg and muddy swamps. The tires that can reach down to the bottom of mud holes and find traction offering will ensure that you can traverse to any location you want and bring home the prize catch.

2. Defender XT

Preferred by a lot of hunters across Western Canada to hunt wild game, the Defender Cab comes with a cab that can be heated during below zero temperature. Once you spot an animal, you can come out of the cab, aim and then shoot. Then get back inside, store the gun, put the heater on and enjoy a cup of hot coffee while you wait.

Gibbons Motor Toys have these models available in various versions, and we can help you fit them with the accessories that suit your needs. So, come down for a visit to our store near Edmonton or call us at 780-923-3796.

“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”

Oscar Wilde

Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth.

But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself.

More into summer fashion

Denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure.

Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure.

• Which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain.
• But in certain circumstances and owing to the claims of duty or the obligations of business it will.
• The wise man therefore always holds in these matters to this principle of selection.

Because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise.
