The thought to increase the draw weight on my bow when I was younger was not one that ran across my mind often.  In fact, I was pretty stuck on never raising my poundage above 60 pounds.  As I went farther down the road that is bowhunting though, I quickly decided that it was something […]

After just coming off of my last hunting season until spring, I find myself reflecting on the past year.  This is when I look back and reevaluate my goal setting.  Did I have any gear that I wasn’t exactly happy with?  Did any weaknesses stick out?  How about my actual hunts?  What did I do […]

Since I dove down the rabbit hole that is my hunting blog and creating content in general, a constant question that lands itself in my inbox is how one goes about starting to do these things.  The simple answer to this is to take a page out of Nike’s book and “JUST DO IT.”  However, […]

It wasn’t until my late teen years, when bowhunting entered my life.  Even then, it was just a sprinkle of time during the year.  My Dad and I would go out for a few days in Dec/Jan, followed by talks of missing our rifles.  This bowhunting stuff was hard and we knew it.  Whether it […]

Here is a brief overview of the tent I have been running on my backcountry adventures over the past year.  It is the Nemo Hornet 2P backpacking tent.  Super cool tent.  Lightweight, durable, packable, and has a simple design.  You can check it out at www.nemoequipment.com.  If you have any questions, lets have them!

If you are anything like me, you are probably constantly trying to figure out how to be better at what you do.  I am not one that tends to settle for good enough.  In this case, I am talking about a love that most of us share and that is bowhunting.  The thrill of sneaking […]

My wife LOVES jigsaw puzzles.  Oftentimes my whole coffee table is nothing but puzzle pieces for weeks at a time.  Every time that she opens a new box and dumps out thousands of tiny pieces, I can’t help but admire her tenacity.  Of course she doesn’t look at them as a whole, she looks at […]

I am going to go ahead and say that “Backcountry Hunting” is the cool thing to do right now.  Rightfully so!  I think it is pretty cool myself!  The ultimate, most hardcore hunt right?  A truly wild experience, living out of nothing more than what is in your backpack.  The promise of adventure coupled with […]

Something that I have grown to look forward to every year is the coming of new products from various companies in the hunting industry.  I am always so eager to see what these folks have been cooking up and how the new additions might fit into my gear list.  Our gear has come a long […]
