Spring Turkey Hunting Tips From Raised Hunting TV Raised Hunting TV show hosts David & Karin Holder openly share hunting tips to make hunting better for everyone. The Grizzly Coolers’ sponsored husband and wife team use their Raised Hunting television show on The Outdoor Channel, Raised at Full Draw educational events and their Raised Outdoors app to provide tips to help all hunters – from beginners to hunters with many hunting seasons under their belt. David Holder’s spring turkey hunting tips & insights are based on thirty years of turkey hunting and twenty years of filming turkey hunts. By closely examining his turkey hunting footage, David has learned to watch how turkeys react to blinds, decoys and calls. “I watch all the mistakes I’ve made and learn from them,” explained David. “You can learn as much or more from unsuccessful hunts.” Karin added, “David has a unique talent communicating with animals, observing their body language, reactions and patterns. He uses different calls and tones based on how turkeys are answering them.” Proper equipment is needed for spring turkey hunting. The three items that every turkey bowhunter needs are a blind, call and decoys, according to David. “The call, it doesn’t...

How are coolers insulated? What materials are used for cooler insulation? Is cooler insulation eco-friendly? What is the thermal efficiency of cooler insulation? What is the best cooler for ice retention? These are some of the common questions you will find when looking into the specifics of insulated coolers and what makes them superior to conventional coolers. So what makes a great cooler? Think about it from a thermodynamics standpoint. Cold is the absence of heat, much like darkness is the absence of light. The goal of a cooler, then, is not so much to keep the "coldness" in but to keep the heat out.

IGBC Bear Resistant Testing Protocols - What Makes a Cooler Bear Proof In 1989 the IGBC developed the first consistent protocol for defining, testing, and recommending minimum design standards for bear-resistant containers. The Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee (IGBC) is considered the gold standard for certification of bear-resistant coolers, such as Grizzly Coolers.  Products that passed the rigorous IGBC testing protocol and were approved as bear-resistant meet IGBC certified bear-resistant design and structural standards. However, this is not a guarantee that a grizzly bear cannot gain entry into these products. Nor does the IGBC guarantee that small amounts of the contents of the containers won’t be able to leak or spill out. Many manufacturers advertise products claiming to be bear-resistant or bear-proof. They may even indicate that their products have been tested by the U.S. Forest Service or the IGBC. However, in some cases, those products may not have actually passed the test or been approved by IGBC. Make sure the product you are purchasing is on the list of IGBC certified bear-resistant products. Bear Proof Cooler Testing Procedures IGBC bear-resistant product testing protocol pertains to food storage and garbage containment products that are commercially available. To comply with this protocol...

What Is Rotomolding? What Are Rotomolded Coolers? Have you ever wondered, what is rotomolding? Rotational molding, rotomolding, rotomold, or rotocasting is a production process to form hollow parts of limitless size. Rotational molding is best used for large, one-piece hollow parts and double-walled open containers such as tanks, kayaks, hunting blinds, playground slides, furniture, and coolers. This is a cost-effective method to produce large plastic parts. Resins are added into a mold that’s heated and rotated slowly, both vertically and horizontally. The simultaneous heating and rotation distribute and fuses the resin on the inner surfaces of the mold. The result is a product that contains seamless parts with a uniform wall thickness with more material in corners to absorb shocks and stresses where they occur most. For example, rotomolded coolers and hunting blinds benefit from the rotomolding process resulting in a leak-proof seeable container. Rotational molding is a manufacturing process that relies on bi-axle rotation, heating, and cooling to produce parts with exceptional strength. The finished product is a stress-free, lightweight, and seamless design that is very durable. Rotomolding Materials In 1961, the first polyolefin powder, a low-density polyethylene, was publicly demonstrated to the rotational molding industry. Polyethylenes remain one of...

Fishing With Grizzly Coolers Makes For A Great Experience DECORAH, IA (June 17, 2020) – For decades, the fishing industry advocated for experienced anglers to “Take a Kid Fishing” in efforts to ensure the future of the industry. Well, the tables turned in 2020, when COVID-19 led to the cancellation of spring and summer team sport seasons and many idle youth decided to explore fishing as a socially distanced outdoor activity. Now, kids, teens, and novices have been asking experienced anglers to take them fishing. Experienced anglers know that pliers, extra hooks, line clippers, and fishing line should be in every tackle box. Having a boat checklist, polarized sunglasses and a hot tip from the local bait shop are a plus. Remember to take Grizzly Coolers along onshore fishing and boating trips to make it a fun and memorable experience! Add these items to your fishing trip gear list: Fishing With Grizzly Coolers Is Ideal A compact Grizzly G20 20-quart cooler is ideal for carrying a few cans of soda or bottles of water, snacks, and sandwiches on the boat or while bass fishing.

DECORAH, IA (July 20, 2020) – Experienced boaters develop a routine, a mental checklist, for what they bring aboard for a day or evening on the water. Sometimes making a simple addition or change to the routine can make the boating experience easier and more enjoyable. Sometimes you learn these tricks by spending time on someone else’s boat, listening to a podcast, or by reading an article online. Here are some ideas about boating with coolers and drinkware to consider from your friends at Grizzly Coolers. Consider permanently stowing a larger cooler on your boat, like a Grizzly G60, G75, or G100 – depending on available space. Preferably stow a cooler where it’s out of the sun but easy to access. Placement in a shaded area under a bimini top or in a compartment, if possible, will help with ice retention. Grizzly Coolers provide optional slick feet and grip feet so you can decide if you want the cooler to slide easily out of a stowing area or stay put. Whoever says size doesn't matter doesn't understand the importance of having the right cooler capacity when out on an adventure. Find out what cooler size is perfect for you on...

Tips On Using Dry Ice In A Cooler Have you thought about using dry ice in your cooler? With some knowledge and preparation, dry ice can be an excellent way to keep your cooler contents cold. Please note that all Grizzly Coolers are dry ice compatible but not all coolers are – please check manufacturer websites for this critical information. Grizzly Coolers are built to withstand the extreme cold of dry ice without warping or cracking. Grizzly Coolers’ insulated walls stop the transfer of the extreme interior cold temperatures to the exterior of the cooler, therefore, eliminating freezer burn risk to people carrying or bumping into the cooler. When dry ice “melts” it releases carbon dioxide gas which could build up inside an airtight cooler and make it explode. Users must adhere to special usage instructions and safety precautions when using dry ice. Now that we have your attention, here are some other interesting facts about how to use dry ice in a cooler successfully and safely: Dry ice is colder than regular wet ice which quickly cools or freezes items and keeps them colder longer. Dry ice temperature can average about negative 109.3 degrees Fahrenheit. Dry ice doesn’t melt...
