The Bering Optics Hogster Stimulus is no question fantastic for the dollar, if you are on a very limited budget.

Armed with data, the California Fish and Game Commission unanimously upheld the right to hunt black bears despite a petition from the Humane Society to ban it.

If you are looking at an exotic destination for vacation and want to spend a couple of days hunting, look no further than the Hawaiian Islands.
