The world that we know today is host to a fast paced, hustle and bustle lifestyle of an environment.  Get up early, go to work, come home, eat dinner, go to bed, and do it again tomorrow.  I believe it is called “The Rat Race.”  With the tap of our finger on a little screen, […]

When I was a kid, I often times never even used binoculars when in the field with my dad.  Nowadays, I don’t know how I survived without them!  Back then, during the off chance that I had binos, I had them attached around my neck with nothing more than an old red shoelace.  I hated […]

The world of western hunting and hunting in general can be a bit overwhelming to a new comer.  I found this to be all too true after blitzkrieging my way into this lifestyle.  It is a lifestyle in my opinion.  What gear do I need?  What do I want to hunt?  Do I hunt alone […]

So, you’ve just about had it!  You have looked through every western hunting magazine that is in existence, watched every hunting show out west, and just can’t take it anymore!  The West is calling.  The Mountains are screaming in your thoughts.  It’s time to go on your first western hunt.

“Trust your camo.”  I have heard this said many times, but up until recently, it never really resonated with me.  This may sound funny, but I don’t think I have ever really TRUSTED my camouflage.  Not that I didn’t like it, I loved my camo.  I think it was just that though.  I wore it […]

Growing up, I went through many stages and had a multitude of hobbies along the way.  Everything from playing guitar and skateboarding to football, basketball, bowling, and of course, hunting and fishing.  I kept myself busy and was passionate about all of the hobbies I took part in.  I can remember the late nights of […]

As technology in the archery industry gets better and better it seems that people are shooting their bows at farther and farther distances.  Traditionally, I myself use a 5-pin multi-pin sight.  My pins are set up for 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 yards.  There is a saying though that says practice at double the […]

The most used word in archery hunting is probably the word, “ALMOST.”  “I ALMOST filled my tag this evening!”  “The bull walked right instead of left and I ALMOST had him!”  How many times have you heard something along those lines or said it yourself?  I hear it every single season and say it myself […]

As most of you have probably guessed it, I am a big fan of the company First Lite and their gear.  First Lite is the makers of high quality hunting clothing and the first to successfully print camo on merino wool. Joshua Kirchner
