One of the best ways to break the routine, sharpen your bow shooting skills, and prepare for a freezer-filling fall is to pen the dotted line and enter a few (as many as you can) 3-D shoots.

Wader Leaks & How to Repair Them
BY David R. Vaught, Ph.D. Published: June 6, 2022 { 0 comments }I recently discussed waders and the many options available for purchasing the right wader. Once you have a new pair reality sets in that all waders will leak sooner or later. Aside from warranty to make the repairs, often you are forced to make the repairs yourself after the warranty has expired or to prepare immediately for another hunt. This is how to make the best effort at repairing those waders.
Field Test: Stone Glacier Sky 5900 w/XCurve Frame
BY Jace Bauserman Published: May 2, 2022 { 2 comments }I’m a bit of a backpack fanatic and I’ve tested piles of them over the years. One of the things I’ve learned is there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Each adventure — from the whitetail woods of the Midwest to the elk-rich Rockies — requires a particular pack.
Wyoming Handgun Antelope
BY Trapr Swonson Published: May 2, 2022 { 3 comments }Handgun hunting tends to make every animal a memorable trophy.

BY David R. Vaught, Ph.D. Published: May 2, 2022 { 1 comment }If you are like me you tend to buy calls, use them, like them, hate them and move on to the next one. Calls take a ton of abuse and often we pay little or no attention to taking care of them both for maintenance and for adjustments. I sat down with a good friend and someone that calls as well as anyone I know, to discuss the call components and how anyone can disassemble, adjust, and rebuild just about any call with a few spare parts.
Tag A Pressured Public-Land Longbeard with Archery Tackle
BY Jace Bauserman Published: May 2, 2022 { 0 comments }When I show up to a public-land hunt area, even if the location seems to be void of other hunters, I treat the dirt and the birds on it like they’ve been hounded to death. I’ve used what I learned to harvest pressured public-land birds with my stick-and-string. Here’s what you need to know.
Thermal Review: Bering Optics R-35 vs Hogster Stimulus
BY Clay Martin Published: May 2, 2022 { 0 comments }The Bering Optics Hogster Stimulus is no question fantastic for the dollar, if you are on a very limited budget. At $1599, you would be hard pressed to find something that will hang with it as far as capabilities go. But what if you have a little more in the tank? To answer that question, we took a look at the Stimulus side by side with Hogster R-35.
