This is the story of a child on their first experience bow hunting whitetail deer with their family. It is a celebration of the outdoor lifestyle and an encouragement to immerse children in the outdoor experience. “For so long I’ve waited for my time to come. Deep breath. Steady hands. My heart pounds like a drum.” Filled with the joy, respect, awe and pride that come with hunting and being in nature, Chasing Deer is a kid-friendly reminder of the wonders of that first hunt.

Big Game Gut Glove – Long Field Dressing Gloves (Lightweight)
Big Game Gut Glove “Reusable” Long Field Dressing Gloves are perfect for any big game, such as deer, elk, moose, bear, hogs, gators, African animals and many more. Just wash them off and you are ready for your next hunt!
Available sizes in XSmall to Medium to fit youth and women! And these gloves feature a self-tightening shoulder grip to keep the gloves from slipping down your sleeves/arms.
As hunters, we also often spend so much money on our camo clothing and materials – so why not take a small step to protect them?! A small investment for protecting hundreds of dollars worth of gear. Extra long 26-inch length keeps your clothing from the blood, messes and smell of big game field dressing.
Made from tough, synthetic rubber, these gloves give you added protection from bones, errant knife and saw cuts, and other sharp hazards (like broadheads!) while field dressing. Big Game Gut Glove field dressing gloves allow you to work more quickly and firmly with less fear of cutting yourself during field dressing. You’ll gain confidence while field dressing, knowing you can work safely and quickly.
Because of the tough materials these gloves are made of, they are also great for messy jobs or jobs that require submersion of your hands into potentially dangerous or noxious chemicals or liquids.
Two gloves are included in the packaging: a left and a right glove.
Refer to product gallery photo for sizing information.
Editor’s Note: I have been using Big Game Gut Glove field dressing gloves for years, and not only do I love them for protecting my hunting clothing, but also they have definitely saved me (more than once!) from a cut on my hand from my own accidental knife mishandling while field dressing. I love how thick and long these gloves are – so much better than the cheap, throwaway gloves!
Sizing tip – for a woman, I have pretty large, long hands so in women’s gloves I am often a size large and men’s gloves I am often a size medium. These gloves are in men’s sizes so I find them true to fit and use a size medium. See the product gallery photo for sizing measurements, but hope this helps! ~Jen

A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice
A Publishers Weekly and New York Public Library Best Book of the Year
Named a Most Anticipated Book of the Year by The Millions and Literary Hub
An award-winning historian shows how girls who found self-understanding in the natural world became women who changed America.
This beautiful, meditative work of history puts girls of all races—and the landscapes they loved—at center stage and reveals the impact of the outdoors on women’s independence, resourcefulness, and vision. For these trailblazing women of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, navigating the woods, following the stars, playing sports, and taking to the streets in peaceful protest were not only joyful pursuits, but also techniques to resist assimilation, racism, and sexism. Lyrically written and full of archival discoveries, Wild Girls evokes landscapes as richly as the girls who roamed in them—and argues for equal access to outdoor spaces for young women of every race and class today.
“Thoroughly absorbing.… A beautiful synthesis of diverse women’s experiences, combining history with memoir and a call to action.” —Jill Watts, New York Times Book Review
