Athlon Outdoors Rendezvous – The Media Event That Sets the Standard
The Athlon Outdoors Rendezvous is a private event uniting top firearm brands and industry-leading content creators. Since its start, it has set the gold standard for media gatherings. Each day combines hands-on range time and evenings dedicated to connecting over dinner and cocktails, all in a well-organized setting.
The 2026 Rendezvous returns to Brush Creek Ranch in Saratoga, Wyoming—a vast, luxurious property in Southeast Wyoming. With 30,000 acres of wilderness, top-tier dining, and stunning views, it’s one of the West’s finest ranches.

Range Time
Range time is the event’s core. Writers rotate in small groups through each manufacturer station for one-on-one product discussions. Companies provide demos, letting writers test new guns and gear alongside representatives. This creates deeper product insight and unique face-to-face information exchange. Something to note is just who the writers are. Like the companies involved, this is an invitation-only event. The writers at the Rendezvous are the best in the industry. These men and women are not random bloggers, but rather seasoned professionals in the industry. With this background, they are able to produce world-class content.
Athlon Outdoors’ strong reputation for honoring embargoes gives us early access to unreleased products. Companies value sharing new items, allowing us to produce in-depth content once they launch at the Rendezvous.

After the range, we enjoy a relaxing social time and an incredible dinner. While this may seem like an “and also” part of the Rendezvous, it is one of the most memorable parts of the event. Writers, company representatives, editors, and management all get the opportunity to take off their work hats and enjoy each other’s company. This has led to the development of long-time friendships. It has also strengthened the relationship between Athlon Outdoors and the companies lucky enough to get an invitation.
World Class Event
As the sun goes down on the final day and the last piece of brass hits the ground, goodbyes are shared, and the writers and content creators go to work. Well over 100 pieces of content will be produced from our time on the ranch. Bleecker Street Publications produces more content in a week than most other publishers put out in a month. From individual articles on specific products to numerous videos, it is an avalanche of information that starts with the Athlon Outdoors Rendezvous.

WHY OUR ARTICLES/REVIEWS DO NOT HAVE AFFILIATE LINKS
Affiliate links create a financial incentive for writers to promote certain products, which can lead to biased recommendations. This blurs the line between genuine advice and marketing, reducing trust in the content.
