2025 Readers’ Choice Awards Results

Toward the end of last year, we asked our readers of Bowhunting World, which is printed four times per year by Grand View Outdoors, to vote for their favorite hunting and archery brands. For convenience, readers could place votes for the 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards via an online submission system.

To ensure we tapped into as many hunters as possible, we promoted the voting process heavily on all of our consumer Grand View Outdoors websites, as well as associated e-newsletters and dedicated e-mail lists. Like in previous years, the response to our call for votes was outstanding.

Here are the top products based on the collective voice of the Bowhunting World readership. Perhaps some of the results will surprise you. If so, maybe it’s time to update your current gear list?

P.S. If you took the time to vote during this year’s awards period, we say “thank you.” If you missed your opportunity, then be sure to keep an eye out for next year’s awards. We want your opinion to be heard.
