This has got to be one of the toughest rounds of archery you will ever shoot. The name of the game is Archery Ironman. This is one of the shoots that we use for bragging rights. You win this game and you have obtained the right to beat your chest and cry to the heavens, ” I am the man.” It will be the toughest, most hair raising, and trash talking rounds of archery that you will ever shoot. This is not a game for people who get their feeling hurt easily.

Chris and Brent have entered into the Big Nasty Hog contest so we thought we would post there edited hog kills on the web so our customers could follow along as they hunt the storied East Texas bottoms for OLD Big Nasty.
The footage of the first two kills was recorded with a product called i-kam extreme one of the sponsors of the contest put on by Blue Collar Bow Hunters.
We wish Team JCL Outdoors the best of luck and will continue to post there shots here as they make footage available.
Target Fun – Games We Play #2
Saturday, February 20th, 2010
One of the great things about the sport of archery is that kids of all ages can participate in the joys of shooting. It’s a wonderful way for children to spend bonding with mom and dad. It is a good way to introduce children to sportsmanship, teach them the return on the investment of time spent practicing, and most importantly good family fun. For adults nothing is more entertaining that watching a group of kids standing in front of a target covered full of balloons and shooting their hearts out. So here is an idea to keep the kids coming back for more.

Beretta 686 White Onyx
Tuesday, February 9th, 2010
As an avid skeet shooter, I have recently had the wonderful experience of shooting a new Beretta 686 White Onyx. As a semi-automatic shooter with limited experience in shooting an over and under, this was an entirely new thing for me. Now before I get pitched under the bus for not including all the specs or that kind of thing, understand I am not a professional, just a guy that loves to shoot.
Let me first begin by saying that this is a visual appealing gun. Opening the blue plastic case, it was like being a 5 year old at Christmas opening the latest GI Joe.
YOUTH FISHING DAY
Monday, February 8th, 2010
Cold was the word of the day, damp air and a north wind could not stop the youth fishing day sponsored by the Texas Parks and Wildlife, assisted by the Hopkins County Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation, and in conjunction with the Buster Family Foundation. This 20 plus year tradition at the Sulphur Springs City Park was a true success judging by the smiles and laughter of our future hunting and fishing enthusiasts. (more…)

This is the first in a series of posts about games that you can play with a group of friends while improving your archery skills. Everyone I know who shoots regularly complains about shooting the same dots on the same targets day after day. Get out of the rut! Put excitement back into target practice! Add target games to your regular routine of shooting. (more…)
BROAD HEAD 101
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010
I have been asked a number of times over the past 20 plus years in the sport of archery what is the best broad head. That question has sparked a number of debates between customers in my store and it always ends up a draw.
In my opinion there is no “ONE” broad head that works on everything, yes they all cut holes, yes they are all sharp, and yes 99.9% of them will get the job done, or will they? (more…)
