Ever since I was a kid, I have been going on hunting trips with my dad.  In my teenage years, I would head out with both friends and dad.  There came a point though, when I reached adulthood, where I wanted to spend more and more time in the field.  I wanted to be out […]

If you have never heard of Target Panic, consider yourself lucky, because that probably means that you haven’t had to deal with it.  Target Panic is when the archer is unable to release an arrow without panicking.  Panicking can take many forms including flinching, not being able to keep the pin held on the bullseye, […]

2015 was a pretty exciting year for me in the field filled with new experiences and opportunities.  It wasn’t until a few weeks ago, when I stopped to think about it all.  It was almost overwhelming reflecting back on everything, which is what I intend on doing here.  Being relatively new to the hunting lifestyle(3 […]

When I was a kid, I was fortunate enough to be exposed to a lot of great memories out in the field that I will have for a lifetime.  The first time that I had deer walk into an ambush set up is something that changed me forever.  It felt like my legs were going […]

Over the past few years, I have become sort of a backpack nerd.  This is pretty funny to me, because when I first really jumped into hunting, I really didn’t see the need to have one.  The first backpack I owned was a 2300 cubic inch day pack.  I loved that pack until I actually […]

As most of you probably have figured out by now, I am a big fan of the podcasting world.  So much so, that I almost find my self listening to hunting podcasts now more than music and that means a lot coming from a musician!  They are a great way for like minded individuals to […]

After the emotional roller coaster that the August bear season gave me, I honestly didn’t know if I was going to hunt bears again during the 2015 season.  To lose an animal of that caliber, after all of the hard work that I have put in over the past 3 years, was a crushing experience. […]

It seems, as of late, the podcasting world, as it pertains to hunting, is getting more and more popular.  To which I say, “AWESOME!”  My only complaint is having too many good podcasts to listen to and not enough time to do so.  Since the last podcast post I made, My Top 5 Hunting Podcasts, […]

In 2013 something happened to me that changed my life.  The kind of thing that no matter how hard you try, you can’t stop thinking about.  I went on my first bear hunt here in Arizona.  Going into the hunt, I read everything that I could about bears in Arizona.  Where they like to reside, […]
