Do you remember when you started using a peep-sight on your bow? I remember it very vividly. At the time, using a peep-sight was a new gimmick. Little did we know that the 'gimmick' was going to aid in our focus and help us bring down more animals by improving our shot placement.

Gadgets, gadgets and more gadgets! I love gadgets and things that make my life easier. I am constantly striving to find good products for me and my fellow bowhunters that will make life easier  in the long run. Time is valuable and I want to have more time to hunt and less time working on my gear. For years I have been fletching and re-fletching my own arrows with a single-arrow fletching jig. It has been time consuming, mediocre and sloppy.

When I first moved to California I had a very difficult time finding areas to hunt. I was also intimidated by the maps that you can buy at the local sporting goods stores. They cover a very large range and it's difficult to find specific locations to scout, let alone hunt. I am not sure how I found out about MapCard, but it has proven to be one of the best tools for my trip planning in the past year. It is limited to only the United States, so if you are traveling abroad you'll have to find different maps.

The family is raffling off 3 Amazing Hunts.

To win one or all of these hunts, all that you need to do is purchase some raffle tickets.

AZ Deer hunt - 4 Days $35

AZ Bear Hunt - $ Days $35

Nebraska Deer Hunt in the RUT - 5 Days $50

Or all three raffle tickets for $100

This is one of my favorite hunts. There are a lot of opportunities to see good numbers of deer, there is a ton of public access, and if you time it just right and hit the rut, you will see some great bucks.

The rut normally falls during last two weeks in December thru the first 2 week in January. Keep in mind that if you hunt December and January during one single hunt you will need two different tags, because it will be two different years.

Greg Krogh is well know amongst all off us Mule Deer and Elk Hunters. For those of you that dont know him, I would consider him one of the greatest hunters in the West as he guides some of the greatest hunters in the West, one of which is Randy Ulmer. Yes, he is a guide and this is a DIY site, but we can all learn from his vast knowledge of locating and taking Trophy animals.

Not only is he a guide but he offers scouting packages as well in Arizona and Nevada. He could be of great assistance to the DIY'er that doesnt have too much time for scouting.
