I enjoy weeklong excursions in the wilderness as much as the next guy, but that’s not an option when you lead a busy life. I know, I know, I hear you already: “But Rodney, the point of going on a long trip in the wild is to escape the hustle and bustle.” Well, yes, you […]
I’ve had many watches in my life, my first was a simple wind-up Timex that still works, telling time and day. Most days I don’t wear a watch, not because I don’t have one but because I can’t program/reprogram the one I have. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great watch but it has more […]

I’ve said it before, there was more technology than you could shake a gun at on display at SHOT SHOW 2024. Even when it wasn’t the most glamorous or “in your face electronics”, technology is making the shooting sports world better in a number of ways. Always a “thing” with shooting is your hearing protection […]
Technology was EVERYWHERE at SHOT SHOW, you literally couldn’t walk an aisle without seeing at least two examples of it being leveraged to make something better in some way. Vaultek is one example of this in the way it uses technology to create safer and more useable storage solutions that give the buyer more and […]
