Built For Sportsmen, By Sportsmen

Affiliated Outdoors was founded on December 1, 2017 with a straightforward idea: create a media brand that speaks directly to the hunting, shooting, and fishing community — not from the outside looking in, but from within the ranks. Every article, video, and podcast episode is produced by people who live the outdoor lifestyle.

Our content spans whitetail hunting strategy, firearms and gear reviews, bowfishing action, and muskie pursuits. Through the Affiliated Outdoors Podcast and AOTV video series, we've brought range reviews, deer season coverage, and conversations with industry voices to sportsmen across the country.

We believe the best outdoor media comes from those who are as comfortable in a treestand or on the water as they are behind a keyboard or camera. That's the foundation of everything we build.

Affiliated Outdoors has worked alongside partners who share our commitment to the outdoor community, including Mass Pursuit TV, Hidden Hybrid Holsters, Stark Arms, StandGuard Decoy, Buck Baits, and Hunter's Blend Coffee. These relationships help us deliver honest, field-tested content to our audience.

From the founding days of the brand, the mission has remained unchanged: deliver authentic, knowledgeable content produced by people who actually live the hunting, shooting, and fishing lifestyle. Whether it's breaking down whitetail strategy as the season shifts into December, putting new handguns through rigorous range reviews, or following bowfishing action and muskie pursuits, every piece of media is created with the same passion that drives the community itself. The Affiliated Outdoors Podcast and AOTV video series exist to celebrate the traditions, the gear, and the shared experiences that define the outdoor sportsman. It's not about chasing trends or talking down to an audience — it's about being one of them, telling real stories, and building a publication that feels like it was made by friends, because it was.
