Joining the Club

Two years ago I took my husband on his first rifle deer hunt and we were successful in him harvesting a mature doe. This year he is “Joining the Club”… the archery club that is.  Last year he said that he wanted to go again and though we were unsuccessful in filling his tags (I got […]

“Buck Fever” GET CALM & STAYING CALM

So you’ve practiced with all of your gear on in numerous different shooting positions, and you know your bow is shooting well. Now how do you defeat your own body’s production of adrenaline? We’ve all felt it, that fast-pulsed rush and shortness of breath we call “buck fever.” If you’re like most of us, you […]

Shot Placement

I have been very fortunate over the years to have met some of the greatest hunters our sport will ever know, and I have had the opportunity to talk with many of them and ask one basic question; “what is the biggest reason people miss, or more importantly why do people hit deer and never […]

Staying at the Top of Your Game

It never fails that as the hunting season draws closer more people start dusting off their bows and guns. They may practice one or two weeks before season starts, hit the target and call it good. But it is like my mother used to always tell me “Practice Makes Perfect” and in the case of […]

Practice Makes Perfect

With archery season less than two months away for many states it is time to consider pulling out the bow and slinging some arrows. If you have not been able to participate in archery shoots during the summer or if work is keeping you from getting outside and putting arrows into a target, now is […]

Chilly 3D Shoot

I attended my first outdoor 3D shoot of the year Sunday morning. It was the appropriately named “blizzard shoot” at the Anamosa bowhunters club. This is my local club, so I try to make as many of the shoots as I can to help support them. I walked out the door in the morning and […]

Buck Profile “KickStart”

This is a nice ten point that has a good kicker coming off of his G2. I’m calling him KickStart I won’t say that I wouldn’t shoot him but I might let have a pass. I feel this buck is just getting started and if given another year could blow up. Like I said I […]

Just One of Those Days

Patience & Perspective

I am by no means a professional archer, but that doesn’t mean I don’t take shooting seriously. I shoot as many 3D tournaments as I can, plus the 3D outdoor summer league at my local archery club. I have made it a point to not push my kids into shooting a bow, since they are […]

DRY RUN PRACTICE – Archery Pre-Season Part 2

Many hunters wonder why they flub easy shots at animals when they can stack arrows on top of each other, Robin Hood-style, on the practice course. Most times, the answer is simple: It’s all of that extra gear you carry into the woods that you don’t carry onto the practice course. If you’re like me, […]
