When it rains it pours - My 2008 Antelope

amaro_jason@hotmail.com — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 02:00:00 +0100

Talk about RAIN!!! It has been a long time since I have seen this much rain this late in the year. In fact, we had TORNADO warnings for the first two days of our Antelope season. I was praying that the area that I was hunting was relatively dry and that I might be able to sit a tank until I was forced to do a little spot and stalk.

Because of birthdays and family visiting I wasn't able to make the first two days of the hunt, usually two days isn't that big of a deal but [...]

A recent scouting trip

amaro_jason@hotmail.com — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 02:00:00 +0100

Hey Everybody...

Just when I was about to get totally discourage, I had a pretty decent scouting trip. As many of you know my deer season doesn't start until Janurary so alot of the work I am doing now is trying to learn new country and hopefully find a new honey hole. As always, my goals are to find sheds and hopefully find animals. Unfortunately, this year I hadn't really found anything noteable until my recent trip. I headed into some country that I suspected held a p [...]

Bowcat VIP Event - This is the event to attend!!!

amaro_jason@hotmail.com — Sat, 09 Aug 2008 02:00:00 +0100

WOW... I have been home for a couple of days and I am still amazed that the entire weekend went so well. I have been sitting here trying to figure out how to share with everybody what went down but the event was something that needed to be attended to really understand the awesome energy of the entire weekend. I guess what I will do is just give you a layout of how it went for Stella and I.

Friday - Stella and I flew into SLC from NM. Nothing to dramatic, I fly so much I don't g [...]

3 Lions one Picture!!!

amaro_jason@hotmail.com — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 02:00:00 +0100

Hey Everybody...

I thougth I would share one of my latest trailcam pictures... Three Dang Lions in one picture. Grrrr..... This is about a mile from the spot I called in a Lion this spring.

I called a local outfitter and he said that if I could find a fresh track during the season he would take me at a day rate. Man, that would be awesome.... I would love to stick one of these guys....

Taking the next step is what Bowcast is all about. Taking the next step, from the average archer to the complete archer is what we are trying to facilitate. For many archers the next step involves becoming your own bow mechanic. If you really want to understand how a bow works you need to start maintaining and fiddling with your own bow.

Is it Bear season yet?

amaro_jason@hotmail.com — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 02:00:00 +0100

Hey Everybody...

Last week I was getting big time cabin fever, so Stella and I went out to hang a trail camera. I found a tank on one map that wasn't listed on the more recent maps so I loaded the coordinates on my GPS and we went for a little hike. At the time I was just hoping that the tank would still be around and it might be a little honey hole. I was hoping to find a pocket of Coues Deer but I found something better. I found a place to hopefully stick a bear. I am go [...]

Contest - Are you Committed to Change?

amaro_jason@hotmail.com — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 22:49:20 +0100

It is often said that 10% of the people take 90% of the game. While I don't know if that statistic is correct, I do know that some hunters are consistently successful. So it leads us to the question, what are they doing differently than the rest of us? Do they go to church more often? Did they sell there soul to the devil? What do they have in common that leads them to be more successful?

One of the things that I think these hunters do is that they are always self -eva [...]

Hey Everybody... All this talk about Antelope hunting really has me ready to get chasing some speed goats. Below is the story of my 2007 NM Antelope hunt. I wish I would have taken better pictures but when I dropped him it was AFRICA hot and I wanted to get him cooled down ASAP.

Product Review - BowPlane

amaro_jason@hotmail.com — Wed, 21 May 2008 18:14:59 +0100

As many of you know I have been in the process of setting up my Blackhawk Bow from Parker. Rather than stumbling thru the process I decided I would tune first then shoot. Always looking for the latest and greatest I setout to find some tools that would help me in thru the process. Other than the usual tools, I found a neat little productcalled the BowPlane2 by Double Take Archery.

{multithumb} This year I will be reviewing the Blackhawk bow from Parker, but before I get too much into the bow I want to give you some of my background. Traditionally, I have always shot some of the longer ATA Hoyts. Not because I have been sponsored or any of that stuff but because I know they make solid bows. I also thinkthat it is the “Indian not the Arrow." If you ever doubt that just take a look at some of the Professional Hunters on T.V., those guys switch bows [...]

Mangus Bowmen 3-D Shoot and Club News

amaro_jason@hotmail.com — Mon, 05 May 2008 20:00:47 +0100

Many of you know that I live in a pretty remote area of Southwestern New Mexico, this is great for hunting but not so great when it comes to hitting the 3-D circuit. We used to have 3 maybe 4, 2-day shoots in the area, basically, all the people from the desert would come play in the Gila National Forest for the weekend. It was alot of fun because these shoots brought in archersfrom all over the Southwest. Unfortunately Fire Restrictions, Fuel Prices and a new NM Archery Tour has caused seve [...]
