GUNNER® Announces 7th Annual Limited Edition Flyway Series

August 13, 2026

The 2026 Series celebrates Cheyenne Bottoms, a critical stop along the Central Flyway

Nashville, Tenn. — August 13, 2026 /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ –  GUNNER®, a leading brand known for overbuilt dog gear and the 5-star crash-tested G1™ Kennel, announces the launch of its 2026 Flyway Series: the Cheyenne Bottoms Collection. Now in its seventh year, the annual Flyway Series features limited-edition colorways across select GUNNER gear, inspired by iconic destinations within North America’s four major flyways.

This year, GUNNER turns its attention west to Cheyenne Bottoms, one of the most important stopover habitats along the Central Flyway. Located in central Kansas, the expansive wetland complex sits roughly halfway between the prairie breeding grounds of Saskatchewan and the Gulf Coast, providing migrating waterfowl with critical habitat to rest, feed and refuel during their journey south.

For waterfowl hunters, Cheyenne Bottoms represents more than a destination. It is a place where the larger story of migration becomes tangible. Hundreds of thousands of ducks and geese pass through the area alongside sandhill cranes, shorebirds and other migrating species, making it a defining stop on one of North America’s great natural highways.

“Every year, the Flyway Series gives us an opportunity to tell the stories behind the places that make waterfowl hunting so special,” said Addison Edmonds, Founder of GUNNER®. “This year, we wanted to focus on the connection between those places. Cheyenne Bottoms is the perfect representation of that idea. It connects the breeding grounds up north with the wintering grounds down south, and it reminds us that every bird we encounter is part of a much bigger journey.”

The 2026 collection builds on the tradition established by GUNNER’s previous Flyway Series releases, which have celebrated distinctive waterfowl destinations and the communities, landscapes and hunting traditions surrounding them. The series has previously highlighted locations including Saskatoon and Reelfoot Lake. For every Flyway Series Kennel and Food Crate sold, GUNNER® will donate a portion of proceeds back to the Ducks Unlimited chapter benefitting the Cheyenne Bottoms region.

With the Cheyenne Bottoms, GUNNER celebrates the idea that waterfowl hunters across the continent are connected by the same birds and the same migration. From Saskatchewan’s prairie potholes to Kansas marshes and ultimately the coastal wetlands of Texas, every destination is part of a single journey.

The limited-edition Cheyenne Bottoms collection is available now through GUNNER.com.
