Meet David Brinker Jr.

While in the midst of graduating college at Western Oregon University with a BA in Business, David met Jason Hairston, the Co-Founder of Sitka Gear- the now leading technical hunting apparel brand, while on an annual California wild pig hunt. Soon after, David was hired as the 4th full-time employee at Sitka. Over time, he became their Marketing Director and stayed with the brand for 11 years as a key team member. While at Sitka Gear, David used his opportunity to travel and explore some of the wildest places on earth to hunt and grow his business acumen with a world-class team. Through this experience, he forged friendships and invaluable connections in the outdoor community.

After leaving Sitka in 2018, David uprooted his family from the Rocky Mountain town of Bozeman, MT and traveled back west. He reacquainted himself with his Oregon roots and formed a partnership with his father who has over 44 years of experience as a Land Real Estate Broker. Their vision and partnership soon became Made Out West Land, Co.
