 Best Can-Am Models for Hunting

Here are two standout vehicles:

Can‑Am Outlander Pro Hunting Edition HD7

  • This ATV is specially built for hunting: 13″ (33 cm) ground clearance, full skid plates, heavy duty bumpers, strong tires, winch included. 

  • The “Hunting Edition” trim makes it easier out of the box: camo finishes, accessories already built in.

  • Good choice if you need a solo or single-seat machine that can go deep off the trail.

Can‑Am Outlander Mossy Oak Hunting Edition

  • This one is a bit older, but designed specifically for hunters (co-branded with Mossy Oak camouflage).

  • Features meant for hunting: gun-boots/gun storage built in, extra protection (skid plates, heavy duty tires), camo finish to blend in.

  • Good option if you find one used in good condition (though you asked about “best” so new models might serve better).

Why these are good for hunting:

  • Can-Am’s hunting-specific vehicles have off-road durability, high ground clearance, good wheel travel, strong engines and dedicated hunting trims.

  • Accessories and built-in features matter: gun storage, cargo racks for game, winches for recovery or hauling game.

  • Camouflage and stealth options help keep from spooking game.

🔧 Useful Can-Am Accessories for Hunting

Besides the vehicle itself, here are accessories that make a big difference:

Can‑Am Hunting Dual Gun Holder Kit

Here’s a quick overview:

  • Can‑Am Cargo Bed Winch (for Defender): A winch is one of the most useful accessories for hunting. Pulling out stuck machine, hauling heavy game, dealing with rough terrain. 

  • Can‑Am Defender Ultimate Bed Rack: Extra cargo space means you can haul more gear or the day’s harvest without stuff flying everywhere.

  • Can‑Am Hunting Dual Gun Holder Kit: Keeps rifles/shotguns safe, accessible, secure — very practical. 

  • Can‑Am In‑Bed Gun Rack: Additional secure gun storage in the bed space; useful if you’re hauling multiple firearms or bulky gear.

  • Hornet Outdoors Bow/Gun/Tool Mount (Can‑Am): For those hunting with bows, or carrying tools/gear besides firearms.

  • Can‑Am Defender Game Loader Rack: Designed to haul big game more easily — strong rack, adequate space for loaded deer/elk/boar.

🎯 My Recommendation & What to Choose Based on Need

  • If you’re hunting alone or with one partner, and terrain is rough (deep woods, steep, off-trail) → go for the Outlander Pro Hunting Edition (HD7) or something similar.

  • If you already own a Can-Am or can find a good deal on a “Hunting Edition” trim (like the Mossy Oak) → that’s fine and built for purpose.

  • If you care a lot about gun/bow storage, hauling capacity for big game, gear storage, make sure you budget for the accessories too (gun racks, winch, bed rack).

  • Consider what type of hunting you do: Are you mostly trail riding to stands? Going deep backcountry? Hauling large game? The machine should match the use case.
