Backyard Bow Pro: Mark Raymer

Hey everyone. I just wanted to check in and wish everyone a happy New Year.  Its hard to believe that we've already made it through a whole decade in the 21st century.  It seems like only yesterday everyone was scurrying around trying to fill their shelters with canned goods and flashlights, panicked over the whole Y2K. So, here we are, the beginning of a brand new year.  I'm not one that typically make tons of new year resolutions, but I wanted to set a couple of goals for this year.  First and foremost, I'm gonna try and get closer in my walk with God.  Second, I will have to say, be the best husband I can be.  If I can take care of these, everything else will fall right into place.  As for my hunting goals, I definitely aim to take a trophy class buck.   That sorta goes without saying, right?  So here are mine, would you like to share some of your goals or resolutions you've made for the new year?

Well, as hard as it is to believe, another whitetail season has come and gone.  Unless you're fortunate enough to have property in an area that offers an extended season, you're probably reflecting back on the many memories and missed opportunities experienced this season.  As many hunters are throwing their gear in storage, now is the time i find myself preparing for next season.   So many factors account for making yourself a more successful archer and hunter.  Two factors I find myself focusing on this time of year are practicing and communicating with land owners so that I know where I have permission to hunt next season.  Once you have your land locked up, there are so many things you can do to increase your odds at harvesting that trophy whitetail.
