AMAZING.

 

AMAZING.

 

WE'VE BEEN USING THEM FOR YEARS.

I'VE HAD THE AX SINCE I WAS ABOUT 17 YEARS OLD.

 

THEY OFFER A VARIETY OF AX STYLES.

THE HANDLES ARE STURDY, FILLED SOLID, NOT BRITTLE PLASTIC.

THE HEADS DO NOT COME OUT. EVER.

 

IF YOU HUNT LIKE US,

A GOOD KNIFE IS REQUIRED.

I USE THE GERBER GATOR FOLDING KNIFE.

YOU'LL LOVE THE GRIP,

NO SLIPPING.

 

JASON USES THE HOOKED FOLDING ONE.

 

LAST CHRISTMAS WE GAVE OUR OLDEST SON THE

BEAR GRYLLS KNIFE.

 

IT'S A SURVIVAL TOOL.

I LOVE THAT YOU CAN GENTLY POUND

ON THE END TO CHISEL ARROWS OUT

OF TREES AT THE 3D ARCHERY SHOOTS!

 

IT HAS A WHISTLE & FLINT & RESCUE CODES.

 

 THEY USED TO MAKE THE *BEST* RIB SPREADER TOO.
THOSE ARE HARD TO FIND NOW.
WHEN I SPOTTED THEM ON EBAY,
I STOCKED UP & PURCHASED 3.

AT OUR SHOP, WE CAN ORDER:
MULTI-TOOL PLIARS (SUSPENSION))
SLIDING SAW
SHEARS
EXCHANGE A BLADE SAW
RACHETING PRUNER
PRUNER SET

JASON'S DAD IS A KERSHAW FAN.
MY DAD'S KNIFE WAS A SHRADE,
BUT HE ALSO USED BUCK.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE KNIFE BRAND???
 

 

 

 



THE RUT

Some helpful information is available to those of us hunting deer in Minnesota.  At WIRED TO HUNT, an article explains all the important deer RUT predictions for this fall.
 To sum it up...here are the highlights:

RUTTING MOON = OCTOBER 29TH (SEEKING PHASE STARTS 4-5 DAYS PRIOR)
Last year it was on November 12, so this year likely be a MUCH better rifle season opener.

NATURAL PEEK OF SPERM & ESTROUS LEVELS= NOVEMBER 1ST
The above two dates coincide for a very confident prediction on peak deer movement!

If there is one thing you need to know.....

PEAK CHASING PHASE= NOVEMBER 2ND
In other words: BOWHUNTING RIGHT BEFORE RIFLE OPENER WILL BE AWESOME!
You could skip buying the rifle tag this year and hunt with your bow like Jason does!
Good luck folks, hopefully this can help you plan your hunts more effectively this fall.

NOW HERE IS A LITTLE MINNESOTA ARCHERY BUCK INSPIRATION...

Mike's Big Deer Blog

DAVE WEYANDT SHOT THIS MONSTER OCTOBER 11TH ON OPENER THIS YEAR. WOW!

LIMITED EDITION

 
They've brought back the Destroyer...only better. 
The advertisement didn't say much.
 However, it was mighty convincing.

WHO WOULDN'T WANT A

HUGE

 MOUND

OF

ANTLERS?



LIMITED EDITION is the Destroyer 350, revived.
 Back better than ever,
 it features a smokin' blackOps finish
with a red grip, string & limb accents! 



If you want it, don't think twice.
 This bow is being made in limited quantities, so don't miss out.
  They run $849.
  Jason has one on order to sell, lets hope it comes swiftly.



***Tuesday Night, Oct 9th update***
The bow came in today, but it's already spoken for.
Regardless, here are some images of the paint finish.
I also am listing the specs.

 

 

hard CORE

Ah yes...lots going on in the archery business.  Diamond has come out with a affordable ($499 MSRP) bow called:

THE CORE
 

This bow comes ready to shoot (RAK) & is adjustable from 40-70 pounds.  It's a bow you can grow with!  That feature is also nice if you crank it down fom league or need to beef it up to moose hunt!

It's light as a feather too, only 3.2 pounds.  Seriously, can they make one any lighter?  WOW.

The brace height is 7.25 for those who need a forgiving bow (myself included!).  It hardly gets any better than that. 

We've ordered a Core.  Keep watching this blog for all the new bow updates!

Sidenote:  The Infinite Edge (previous blog post) comes in 3 finishes, including pink! All the specs are officially posted at Diamond~ Infinite Edge
