Bowhunting with a Bear Domain bow, and Carbon Express Mayhem arrows (Montac G5 100g arrowhead). This was taken September 2017 in Western Washington while I was out deer hunting.

Wabakimi… Just say that a couple times in your head. Wabakimi is such a cool name. “Hey Bro, what knife is that?” “Oh man that’s the Wabakimi“. Helle makes extravagant blades, but not so extravagant that they lose the quality of the blade for appearance. It’s a compromise on each – beauty and blade. The […]

It didn’t take long for anyone to figure out they were far superior to the green “Jungle Boots” in almost every application. Since that time, I’ve toured the Danner factory as well as taken […]
Plenty of you reading this have served in the US Armed Forces and are all too familiar with the old MRE’s (meal, ready to eat). Plenty more have run into them during disaster operations or when someone pulls one out of a bag when out camping. The content of these sealed pouches has changed quite a bit […]
It’s no secret that I enjoy using Danner boots, and it’s no surprise why. In the toughest environments I’ve been in, Danner boots have held their own. In heat over 110 degrees and while being ground against jagged rocks, my issued Acadia’s were totally dependable. During a tour of the Danner factory in Portland, OR, […]

When you buy your arrows for bow hunting, there are standard nocks on the arrow (non-lighting). For most hunters, that is what they continue to use. But an […]
