Diamond Archery Rock 2.0 Bow Package
The Rock 2.0 is a great bow for hunters of levels. When I went to the archery shop I shot about 3 other bows before i tried the Rock 2.0 . The transition into the let off was very smooth. The 3 other bows had a bit of a jerk and i did not feel comfortable with them. This bow just felt right for me. I did a bit of tweaking when i got it home and it is very accurate. I’m shooting very tight groups at about 15 yards. I plan on putting a stabilizer on it soon so that I can improve my accuracy a bit more. I’m not sure if I really need one though because I’m shooting pretty good without it. The Rock 2.0 Bow Package includes: bow, three-pin fiber-optic sight, Hostage Capture arrow rest, black four-arrow twist-release quiver, braided sling and a peep sight. Some people have complained about the whisker biscuit,arrow rest, and sight but i have not had any problems yet. Overall I’m very satisfied with the bow. I spent a little more then i had planned, but it was well worth it. Read the rest of this entry »

The Leoncitas Ranch is located in the trophy Buck County of McMullen in South Texas. This Ranch has been managed by the same family since 1906. The generation is the only difference today.

This medium to heavy brush has never been occupied by a bowhunter prior to 2000/001 hunting season. The brush consist of short Mesquite trees, Wajia, Black Brush, White Brush, Agarita, Cat Claw, Ceneasa and one lone Mountain Laurel Bush which no one knows where or how it arrived on the ranch. This country is fairly flat with an occasional slow rise. Read the rest of this entry »
Tenpoint ACUdraw: Crossbow Drawing at Its Best
Crossbows have been around in as early as the 4th century BC. The simplicity of its operation has contributed to its popularity as a weapon in medieval times, and as a hunting implement in modern sports and recreation. Through the centuries, crossbow design had evolved to the point in which it became impossible to draw the bow just by simply pulling on the string. Modern crossbows have a draw weight of 150 lbs. or more. This makes it necessary to design mechanisms called cocking devices, which will aid the consumer in drawing the bow.
