Welcome to Nature’s Prize, your premier destination for all things outdoors, located at 13035 Main Road in Akron, NY. Established in April 2014 by Dave and Tiffanie, Nature’s Prize began as a small taxidermy shop with a passion for celebrating the beauty and thrill of the great outdoors. Over the years, we’ve evolved into a full-service outdoor store, offering everything an outdoor enthusiast could need—whether you’re into hunting, archery, fishing, or exploring the wilderness.

We pride ourselves on being more than just a store; we’re a trusted partner for outdoor enthusiasts who seek quality, expertise, and a personal touch.
