Secure your bow to your hand in seconds!

This photo was taken on a cell phone last week after the guy took his friend to Bass Pro Shop to buy his first bow. The clerk was 'assisting' him in zeroing it in, and, after shooting several arrows, making adjustments etc., the clerk accidentally handed him an arrow that was too short.


When he drew back, the arrow tip fell down onto his hand and he somehow released it. They rode to the hospital with the bow in his buddy's hand because it impaled his finger also! They are both archery amateurs (I'm thinking the clerk is also?). I don't think the guy who got shot ever had held a bow prior, let alone shoot one...OUCH!

Choose Your Bowhunting Partner Wisely

That's got to sting a little... this is why you should be careful when choosing your bowhunting partner

Ted Nugent and Bowhunter Being Interviewed

Ted Nugent, rock star and avid bow hunter from Michigan, was being interviewed by a French journalist, an animal rights activist The discussion came around to deer hunting.

The journalist asked, 'What do you think is the last thought in the head of a deer before you shoot him? Is it, 'Are you my friend?' or is it 'Are you the one who killed my brother?

Nugent replied, 'Deer aren't capable of that kind of thinking. All they care about is, what am I going to eat next, who am I going to screw next, and can I run fast enough to get away. They are very much like the French.'
The interview ended.

How To Shoot A Bow

Bow Grizzly

I don't know if this is a true account or not but if it is....WOW!!!

Ron is an experienced hunter and used to be a guide, was calling an elkfor his dad, who was down hill 40 yards. The elk suddenly spooked andthen Ron heard a noise behind him. He turned around and a grizzly was 15 feet behind him. He tried to shoo it away but it proceeded toward him.

He went behind a tree and the bear kept coming, so he took off on his'death run' down hill towards his dad. With the grizzly just feet behindhis son, and running full speed, Ron's dad shot one arrow. Ron saw the arrow fly by his leg, unsure of whether it hit the bear, and within a few more steps, Ron was on his back with the grizzly on top of him.

With is arms shielding his head, Ron kicked and punched the bear withall he had. Ron said it all went to fast and he was so full ofadrenaline, he could not feel any pain at the time of the attack. Whenthe bear continued to attack, Ron's dad, could see that the bear was bleeding badly from the arrow, and he went over and started beating on the bear with his bow (You can not carry guns during bow hunting, so he had nothing to shoot it).

The bear continued to attack Ron, biting clearthrough his left hand and glove, and down to the bone of his right arm just below the elbow. Then the bear, stopped, looking at Ron's dad, walked away several yards, and rolled over dead.

The bear was autopsied and showed that it was well over 500 lbs (thegrizzlies in that area average 350lbs) and 11 years old (which is init's prime). Following the path of the arrow, the autopsy showed thatthe arrow went in, hit a main artery, then bent, and hit the heart! A one in a thousand shot they said.

Another important fact to mention is that Ron's dad had had surgery on his arm, because he had injured his arm and was not even able to pull the bow last season. This was to be his big hunt, and before the day ofthe attack, he had already missed two elk that were standing still. The morning of the attack, Ron's dad (also named Ron), prayed 'God pleaseguide my arrow today'. Little did Ron Sr. and Ron know how God would guide his arrow that day!

The Amazing Whitetail Deer

We received these images several days ago from a friend of ours and were shocked when we opened them up. First and foremost we want to stress the fact that while we do post some strange and unusual things here, we in no way condone shooting or attempting to shoot any animal in the head with an arrow. Not only is this an extremely low percentage shot, but as you can see from these photos it makes the entire hunting community look bad when these are seen by non-hunters. Granted, bad shots are going to happen on accident and that is a part of the game that we all should recognize. But purposely taking a bad shot is extremely unethical and uncalled for. For the sake of our sport and our sportsmanship, DO NOT ever attempt this shit with a bow and arrow.

The ability of the whitetail deer to survive after enduring a wound of this sort is amazing, and nothing short of a true testament to their toughness and durability. They never cease to amaze us!
