Skip to contentMy first few hikes of the hunting season are almost always really brutal. Why? Because I’m not prepared for them and jump into the beginning of the season thinking I’m still in the same shape I was at the end of last season. Over the last few years since getting my personal training [...]
In this video from Kifarucast, Aron Snyder is joined by Tom Clum of Rocky Mountain Specialty Gear, to talk about the shot sequence and things that can make you a better archery shooter. For a more in depth explanation and coaching from Tom, watch an excerpt from his video Solid Archery [...]
An old archer, filled with passion and quick of wit, once told me we were “one generation from extinction” and hung on every grizzled word to make sure I remembered it. I didn’t know what he meant at first. I had just joined the Michigan Longbow Association’s council and everything seemed to be [...]

One of Clay Hayes' early videos tells you what you need to know, and how to process wild turkey feathers to use as arrow fletching.
“To bait or not to bait, that is the question,” my old hunting partner Will Shakespeare used to say. All humor aside, this topic can bring up emotion, argumentative debate, and disrupt friendships. It may be wise to have adult beverages available to calm the discussion, though that could perhaps have the opposite [...]
Hunting for deer, elk or moose shed antlers can be a fun and rewarding activity for the whole family. It is a great way to dispel "cabin fever" and get outside on a nice spring day. Be sure and check the regulations in the state where you live, and please do not disturb [...]
