Evansville, IN (April 14, 2021) — Bear Archery, a leader and innovator when it comes to archery and hunting equipment, unveiled the truck that they’ll be giving away at this year’s Total Archery Challenge. The 2021 Chevrolet Silverado TrailBoss will be given to one lucky archer at the end of the nine-city 3D archery tour. Bear and the team at Total Archery Challenge did not hold back when designing this year’s prize.

The Total Archery Challenge has quickly become one of the largest and most talked about 3D archery experiences in the United States. The event, very much like golf, features several courses ranging in difficulty and archers register in advance to pick a “Nock Time™” for a particular course. It is a non-competitive social outing for anyone interested in shooting their compound or traditional bow April through August. The event is open to anyone that wishes to attend.

This year’s truck giveaway features a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado TrailBoss 4×4 that is wrapped entirely in Bear Archery’s signature “Fred Bear Camo.” The adventure seeking pickup is also decked out in the latest and greatest off-road gear from several of Total Archery Challenge’s other partners. The Silverado received an off-road lift, Firestone off-road tires, a Retrax bed cover, Anthem off-road wheels, a Leitner Designs cargo system, a Free Spirit Recreation hard top tent, a tailgate liner from Mountain Hatch, and the #1 FOC arrow sleeve from Pro-Tracker Archery. There isn’t anything Bear and Total Archery Challenge skipped when building out this truck.

“Our team could not be happier with the end result of this year’s Shoot to Win truck,” said Bear Archery Marketing Manager, Alec Wyman. “We’ve been working for months with the team at Total Archery Challenge and their robust group of partners to bring shooters at this year’s tour stops the coolest, most capable, and adventure ready 4×4 in the history of the event.”

Attendees at this year’s Total Archery Challenge will have the opportunity to win the truck by hitting the center ring of a target more than 110 yards away – 111 yards to be exact. There are no magnifiers or clarifiers allowed, and the arrow cannot be breaking the line of the center ring. The Total Archery Challenge has staff on site with dedicated judges to determine eligible shots. Each designated “hit” earns the shooter one entry into the raffle. The winner of the truck will be selected after the final event in Snowbird, Utah the last weekend of July. Read more

Hunters seeking to up the game with added penetration will want to take a close look at the SEVR 1.5 titanium broadhead.

Suitable for use in both conventional vertical bows and crossbows, the SEVR Titanium 1.5 is built on a premium titanium ferrule with a sharp, precision-ground tip. Blades are made of 420-grade stainless steel with a .032-inch thickness to add strength and durability.

Provides exact distance to target and exact aiming points

GREELEY, CO – Burris Optics changed the compound bow hunting game with the introduction of the Oracle Rangefinding Bow Sight in 2018 by taking the guesswork out of pin placement to give hunters the needed edge while in the field. Burris has built upon that success and incorporated positive consumer feedback for improvements in the overall design to enhance performance, bolster ruggedness and improve ease of use.

Knowing exact distance to target is critical when bow hunting. A few yards can be the difference between filling a tag or going home empty handed. The Oracle 2 eliminates unknown distances with a built-in IR laser rangefinder that automatically provides the correct aiming point for any distance and shot angle.

The Oracle 2 features increased functionality of the auto-brightness sensor to allow the pin brightness to be lower in ambient light conditions. Hunters can also use the easy-to-reach buttons to manually override the sensor to adjust to their desired brightness. The laser rangefinder adjustment mechanism also received improved usability by allowing users to adjust the laser’s point of aim without the use of special tools. The point of aim can now be adjusted much like a rifle scope and employs a more precise clicking mechanism. Read more
