I have been asked many time by my viewers on YouTube and other places my videos are viewed what I think are the best combinations for bowhunting success.

I think everybody hanging around the Nuge Spirit campfire can agree on another hunting lifestyle truism; deerhunters do not live by deerhunting alone! Every deerhunter I know lives this wonderful hunting lifestyle in every way we can possibly manipulate our schedules and responsibilities and lives overall to get out there as much as humanly possible […]

Warm temperatures beckon a wide variety of sharks into close, personal contact with Texas anglers. by Larry Bozka What does a Texas angler get when he or she mixes equal parts of fascination, fear, and fun?

Blacktip Shark caught, tagged, DNA sampled and released. The scariest thing about catching a blacktip shark is releasing it. I walked this girl out into belly deep water and held her there for about five minutes until she slapped her tail and disappeared. The walk back to the beach is always a little nerve racking. […]

It’s no secret that the 50BMG is a beastly round.  And since it packs such a large payload there is a variety of ammunition available.  One of the most common is the Armored Piercing Incendiary round or API for short. 50BMG API rounds weigh in around 647 grains and underneath the copper jacket it contains 15 grains […]

Running aground is something that happens to all of us. Especially if you regularly fish backwater flats and lagoons, it’s simply bound to happen sooner or later.

The Importance of  Firearms Training for Gun Owners If you plan to own a gun for self-defense, I’m a huge proponent of firearms training.

Binary explosives can be a blast when you follow the instructions properly.  But you will always find someone who needs a life lesson to learn otherwise.  Often those slow learners are missing appendages.  Case in point:

Manufactures instructions warn to be at least 100 yards away for the powerful 1 pound and larger centerfire targets, and clear the area of any debris.  Detonating a target inside a machine with blades from 44′ is a recipe for disaster.

Learn from this guy: don’t be an idiot.

Also, always place a courtesy call to the local sheriff when getting your ‘Merica on, it makes life easier for everyone.
