When we start looking for hunting or guy products at times we are limited by Cash - what is something that you wouldn't mind buying the "No-Name" product?

Most of everything I own. ...with some critical exceptions. But I read lots of reviews, watch YouTube video reviews on certain products, etc. Do lots of checking on Amazon.

Scent block None of it makes a hill of beans difference, so by the cheap stuff and save a few dollars

Some of the Game Winner brand that Academy sells. Their deluxe soft bow case is a great case! Especially for around 50 bucks.

I believe that was Winston Burnhams favorite cover scent. I also break a small cedar branch off and brush myself down with it, sometimes grab a handful of dirt to cleanse any smell of my hand. Have a clothes wire running between two trees to air my clothes out with, sometimes I will spray them with cover scent when hanging. To answer the question; I will buy a knock off if I think it is the same quality product for a lot better value

RTIC instead of a Yeti. WalMart no name brand camo. Mine gets torn up busting brush and climbing barb wire fences, so buying more expense brands and worrying that patterns match doesn't make much sense. Savage over Remington or Tikka.

I buy a lot of Midway.com clothes. They are great quality, and when you get them off season they are cheap. Also their military surplus stuff. Good quality and dirt cheap.

probably just a name brand hunting boot. I have had a pair of Genesis Lacrosse boots for around 15 years and they are still in great shape.

My dad watching hunting shows and after sponsors have eat up majority of time he will ask me...How did we ever kill deer?They say deer are sensitive to the color blue and strange noise will alert them. I killed a deaf and color blind deer about 20 years ago south of Ozona, I was in old Dodge diesel that was blue and silver...or maybe natural selection took place!

I agree on the Game Winner stuff. I've had good luck with it and I'm actually looking at a GW heavy duty rifle case right now and leaning heavily that direction.

Other than guns, optics, feeders and corn/feed I don't buy any "hunting" products. I don't even have "hunting" boots, most the time its crocs or flip flops.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

I'm really only brand loyal at the grocery store. Hunting gear, i look for deals, get online and use the comments to make a decision on what I'm looking for. I am not a rich man so my main hunting rifles are all Mossberg, 22, 308 and 20g. My camo is the $2-$5 shirts and pants Walmart sells after hunting season.
Go get in the woods

Game Winner from Academy is a good brand as is RedHead, the BPS store brand.
Though, I will admit that I am a brand snob.
