As some here may know, I'm on the board of directors for the Wisconsin Bowhunting Heritage Foundation Museum. On Sunday (1/28/18) we had a meeting at the museum. This is one of the new displays. The only deer Fred Bear killed in Wisconsin. Brief and poor quality cell phone video I took...

So why would a bowhunter go after hairy, tusky, swine on a game ranch/preserve/reserve/high fence operation/enclosure/cage/pen/or whatever judgmental term you want to apply to the act of chasing game where the high fences surround the land? After all, nobody in their right mind would do such a...

I'm looking to this community of bowhunters to provide input as to a fair price point for a broadhead target we are currently prototyping. Currently we are considering local markets due to the large size (40" x 35" x 20" and 28 Lbs) so shipping would be pretty steep. These targets are made from...

Anybody know what this is? What its for? What its called?

My brother traps and got a beaver. He tanned it himself and wants a pair of chopper mitts. Since the hide was not professionally tanned its not been thinned and its not as soft or pliable as I would like but the fur is great. In the picture below, the head is to the left. The thickest part of...

I enjoy videoing while I bowhunt and its was time for an upgrade. The requirements of my bowhunting cam is that its got to be small enough to come out of the pocket easily and light weight and it has to have great zoom. I took advantage of cyber Monday sales and got a Cannon SX720 HS pocket cam...

We are super excited about my dad's primitive archery bear hunt that starts on Monday but now we are even more excited because we just ordered what is sure to be the hunter’s camera that replaces the Go Pro. They just released their new Adventure cam that does so much more than the go pro and...

I like to hunt from the ground in natural debris blinds and pop ups at times but I don’t like the available options for ground blind chairs. I hunt river bottoms that are soft ground so chair legs sink which means the need to also haul in some sort of flooring material. Couple that with the fact...

The DIY tonneau has the truck bed pretty dark now so Im adding some bed lighting but I didnt care to hard wire lights to the electrical system and the battery powered kits seemed over priced and both seemed to be of singular use. I hoped to make the lights have multiple uses for things like...
