Trophy Totes Mount ’Em Cooler

Over the years I have been fortunate enough to harvest some quality whitetails that I took to the Taxidermist to be mounted. The great feeling of harvesting that deer or animal was just overwhelming. That feeling can last for hours and even days. The one thing that can put a damper on that feeling is when you have to transport that deer head/cape to your taxidermist.

Line Up of Top 2012 PSE Bows

I have used this bow for the past 8 months and love the fact that this bow is compact but still shoots great. It helped me on my quest for the 2012 Turkey Slam with Bow this past spring where I was able to shoot four of the five species of turkeys for grand slam. I am looking forward to using it in the tree stand this year as well.

Plant Once, Fertilize Twice

Many times fall food plots are planted in a mad dash to get seed in the ground before a rain. This sometimes means that fertilizer gets left out and was not added at or before planting time, not to worry. Fertilizer can be applied after planting with no problem. If you are like me, you can’t stand to drive over your plot after its been planted. But the benefits of the fertilizer will far outweigh

Crossbows for 2012 Hunting Season

The Raider features an economically executed variation of parent company TenPoint’s powerful Compact Limb System (CLS) bow assembly. Unlike TenPoint’s one-piece CLS riser and foot stirrup, however, the Raider is designed with a detachable, lightweight coated aluminum foot stirrup. Its 12-inch IsoTaper Limbs are fitted with MR cams and ultra-strong D-75 string and cables.

Thank You to the Old Men, Who Allowed Me to Be Young

Both my grandfathers and a great uncle served in World War II. None of them talked much at all about what they did or saw in those years, but their enjoyment of life and the outdoors told me without words why they did it. To all those who have served and continue serving, thank you.
