Written by Mike on November 3, 2009 – 8:24 pm -Looking around the web this week found an interesting article on Horton Compound Bows that I think you will fnd interesting. For years Horton has made quality crossbows but it wasn’t until 2008 that the company decided to make a major change and begin to offer compound bows.

Written by Mike on September 1, 2008 – 8:19 am -In a ruling likely to provide a national precedent, the Virginia Supreme Court in mid-July upheld a lower court’s ruling that bowhunting is a safe, science-based tool of wildlife management, and that local authorities cannot stop citizens from bowhunting deer on their property when hunting itself is a right conferred by the state’s Constitution.

Bowhunters, Avoid Becoming The Hunted
Written by Mike on August 24, 2008 – 9:09 am -With Montana’s upland game bird and bow hunting seasons underway beginning Sept. 6, it is a good time to review the basics of hunting safely in bear country. Grizzly bears can be found throughout western Montana, and in recent years grizzly bears are venturing out to explore and inhabit historic ranges. Every bird and bow hunters need to be aware that the act of hunting increase the risk of encountering grizzly bears.

Montana law requires hunters to obtain permission for all hunting on private land. Whether pursuing upland game birds, coyotes, gopher or any other wildlife, hunters must have permission from the landowner before hunting on private property. Landowners may grant permission in a face-to-face contact or over the phone, in writing or by posting signs that explain the type of hunting allowed and under what conditions. Read More →

Written by Mike on August 24, 2008 – 7:49 am -Montana elk and antelope archery hunters need to keep a sharp eye out for several regulation changes for the 2008 hunting seasons that require many archers to have permits in hunting districts that may not have required them in the past. The changes call for elk archery hunters in the Missouri River Breaks and 23 other elk-hunting districts in central and eastern Montana to have applied a permit in June. In addition, antelope archery hunters in multi-region “900 series” areas were similarly required to have applied in June for a license via Montana’s annual special drawings. The move to change several elk- and antelope-archery regulations came in response to concerns about hunter crowding, opportunity inequities between archers... more
