I would try Cabelas, Sportsmand Warehouse, Bass Pro shops. From there you may be able to meet some contacts and roll into a larger firm. Otherwise go to web sites for the companies you are interested in. Most have links to info about job opportunities. Problm is that a lot of these companies still want employees to have degrees in some area. It may be tough to just walk in. You may want to go to a course in being a guide. One good quality of being a sales rep of a company that supports outdoor activities is the ability to relate to what the customer is looking for. The guide school would give you a very wide range of outdoor experience that you can document.

Good luck
