Hall of Fame Archer Leaves a Lasting Mark on the Shooting Sports

Byron Ferguson, the internationally renowned longbow archer whose impossible shots drew standing-room crowds around the world, passed away early this month. A fixture of archery exhibitions for decades, Ferguson blended showmanship with old-school craftsmanship, turning a traditional bow into a precision instrument and inspiring generations to pick up the sport.

Ferguson’s feats became legend. Famous for his coin trick, he once shot eight dimes in a row out of the air. His most difficult shot came on the television program Super People in Tokyo, where he sent an arrow cleanly through a diamond ring. On American television, he became a household name for viewers of American Shooter on TNN, ESPN, ESPN2, and OLN, where his “Shot of the Week” segment was the most-watched portion of the show for a decade. He later appeared on Shooting USA on The Outdoor Channel and on Impossible Shots, and served as host and producer of TNN’s Everything Outdoors, billed as the world’s first “how-to” outdoor TV program.

His exhibitions spanned the globe, with performances in France, Japan, Chile, Italy, Spain, Canada, the United States, Sweden, Austria, Germany, Finland, and Brazil. He took traditional archery into mainstream pop culture with appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Extreme Marksman, and Super Human, always with the calm, exacting presence that defined his stage persona.

A teacher as well as a performer, Ferguson authored Become the Arrow, a book that distilled his philosophy of focus, form, and follow-through. In 2023, he launched Byron Ferguson Productions, a full-service video production company dedicated to telling outdoor stories and passing on hard-earned lessons to a new generation of shooters and filmmakers.

Recognition followed a lifetime of dedication. In 2023, Ferguson was inducted into the Archery Hall of Fame, a fitting honor for a man whose name had become synonymous with instinctive shooting and precision under pressure. His legacy endures wherever a longbow is strung and a target hangs, and is proof that, in the right hands, traditional archery can still astonish. Read more

Henry’s SPD HUSH Series Wins Best New Rifle Caliber Award

RICE LAKE, Wis. — The SPD HUSH Series from Henry Repeating Arms has been named Best New Rifle in the 2025 Caliber Awards, presented by the National Association of Sporting Goods Wholesalers (NASGW) and the Professional Outdoor Media Association (POMA) during the NASGW Expo & Annual Meeting in Grapevine, Texas.

Launched in April at the NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits as the first release under Henry’s Special Products Division (SPD), Henry’s Ultimate Suppressor Host (HUSH) Series is purpose-built to maximize the inherent strengths of the lever action platform as a suppressor host. Quieter than a semi-automatic and faster to operate than a bolt action, the rifles maintain a natural point of balance and overall weight even with the addition of a suppressor, which is achieved through the combination of a lightweight, match-grade 416R stainless steel barrel shrouded in a tension-wrapped carbon fiber sleeve and a skeletonized aluminum M-LOK® handguard to reduce weight forward of the receiver.

“Our Special Products Division is one for one with major industry awards, which says a lot about the talent and creativity of the team,” said Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. “The early success of the SPD HUSH Series shows that innovation is alive and in good hands at Henry, and we may need to invest in a bigger trophy case for what’s to come.” Read more

Time to Prep Your Trees for the Fall

The weather is slowly starting to cool as fall takes full effect in Michigan. There are a few things you can do to help prepare and protect your trees for the change of seasons:

    • Mulching: Add a new layer of mulch to better maintain moisture levels and buffer extreme temperature changes in the soil. Remember, doughnuts not volcanoes.
    • Fertilizing: Adding a slow-release fertilizer in the fall helps provide a nutrient boost over the winter and can promote root growth.
    • Watering: As temperatures drop and trees begin to head into dormancy, they don’t need as much water. You can water up until the first freeze, but make sure soils are just a little damp and not soaked.
    • Pruning: Now is a good time to prune out any dead, damaged, or diseased limbs in your trees.
    • Trunk protection: Sunscald or southwest damage occurs on young and thin barked trees in the winter. Bucks will scrape trees with their antlers, scraping off the bark and damaging the cambium. Tree guards can be placed around trunks to protect against this damage.
    • Inspections: Visual inspections can be done year-round, but this time of the year it might be easier to see changes in your tree.
