Bow and Gear Hoist

DANVILLE, Ala. (May 4, 2015) – With the introduction of the new Bow and Gear Hoist, HSS has addressed the issue of how to safely, silently and quickly get a bow or other gear into a treestand. The Bow and Gear Hoist is lightweight, easy-to-use and virtually tangle free, as there are no ropes or cords to contend with.

Weighing in at only 3.17 ounces, the new Bow and Gear Hoist measures just 3.75 X 3.2 inches, and is small enough to store in a back pocket. It features a 2-inch carabiner with a rubber coating on the large end to deaden sound, and a swivel attachment allows bows or gear to spin freely to prevent binding of the ribbon.

To use, simply attach your bow to the Bow and Gear Hoist’s carabiner, use the clip on the back to attach it to your belt—or place it in a secure pocket—and begin your climb. The ribbon will unwind, practically unnoticed during your accent. Once in the treestand, use the ribbon to raise your bow hand-over-hand. Then, just wind the ribbon back into its sturdy polymer case. To lower your bow, simply clip it to the carabiner again and lower it to the ground allowing the ribbon to slowly slide through your fingers. If no rocks or hard surfaces are present below, the HSS Bow and Gear Hoist can then be dropped to the ground. Read more

Deep Six Full Metal Jacket Arrows: More Kinetic Power From Your Hunting Bow

Full Metal Jacket and Ultra-Micro Injexion carbon arrows are both field-proven on big game for hunters seeking more penetration for bow hunting. In its latest product advancement, Easton has combined these two arrow shaft concepts into one arrow—the Deep Six FMJ. The Deep Six FMJ arrow combines a full metal jacket over an ultra-micro diameter carbon core that results in the most advanced arrow ever available to bowhunters. Deep Six FMJ arrows pull more potential energy from the bow and increase penetration by focusing their mass into a smaller diameter and reduced surface area. This results in less friction during flight for higher speed and more kinetic energy downrange. The ultra-micro diameter also penetrates with less friction for more pass-through impacts to take down game quickly and assuring recovery.

Michigan Archery in the Schools Program Continues to Grow

Last spring, when the Department of Natural Resources held its first statewide archery tournament for youngsters in the National Archery in the Schools Program, just over 400 youths signed up to come to Central Michigan University to shoot.

This year, more than 600 youngsters registered.

“It just keeps growing in Michigan,” said Kathy Garland, the DNR’s National Archery in the Schools Program coordinator. “We get more schools and more kids every year.

Student archers lined up to shoot at targets”There are 596 schools statewide participating in the program,” she continued. “Twenty-seven of them are at the tournament. We’d love to have more schools in this tournament, but we’re happy just to have them in the program.”

The program, which is run largely by physical education staffs at many schools – though some science and math departments sponsor teams – is designed for students in fourth through 12th grades. It’s about archery as a recreational activity, a sport and a learning experience. According to the teams’ coaches, it’s succeeding on all those levels. Read more
