What You’ll Discover Here
At Jason Tome Outdoors, I focus on delivering quality and detailed content across various outdoor activities, with a particular emphasis on hunting. Here’s what you can expect:
Editorial Guidelines and Article Standards
To quality content of this blog I hold this blog to Editorial Guidelines and article standards (see standards below). This is a audience first, revenue second blog, meaning I prioritize my readers over income to build trust and to create a website that is user-friendly without ads and affiliates everywhere. Although affiliates are part of how I earn revenue with this blog, I only use them when it make sense for my audience. Articles that have affiliates or any other kind of compensation will be mentioned at the beginning of each article for transparency. I have an Affiliate Disclosure if you’d like to learn more about how affiliates play a role on my website.
Buying Guides
To streamline your research process, I craft in-depth buying guides that highlight the best options across various categories. My Buying Guide Article Standards ensure well-researched quality articles. Articles usually include budget-friendly picks, top-value selections, and premium choices, so you find the gear that best suits your needs. These guides are usually not hands-on or field-tested but are created during the initial research-gathering phase where I compare the specs of gear to see which is the best on paper to narrow down your search faster. I often have Excel spreadsheets embedded into these posts to help with comparative visuals.
Gear Reviews
I provide in-depth, hands-on evaluations of hunting and outdoor gear, testing everything from cutting-edge innovations to time-tested essentials in real-world conditions. My Gear Testing and Reviewing Standards ensure each review offers an honest assessment of a product’s strengths and weaknesses, helping you make well-informed outdoor gear investments. I often rely on extensive research from my Buying Guides to select products for hands-on field testing. This approach allows me to verify whether a product’s specifications and marketing claims hold up in real-life scenarios.
Tips & How-To’s
My tips and how-to articles are designed to equip you with the knowledge needed to tackle specific outdoor challenges. Whether you’re looking to improve your hunting tactics, learn new camping skills, or understand the nuances of trapping, these guides will help you step into the wild with confidence.
