Firenock LLC brings missile arming technology, reliability of modern electronics to the archery industry.  Firenock has successfully develop the “G” switch that is the same technology as 2nd arming switch as modern missile. (i.e. it need to sense a specific acceleration before it can be armed.  This technology eliminates accidental misfire/self arming)  This technology is the heart of Firenock LLC offering of our “G” series lighted nock.  In plan English, you get a lighted nock that lit only when you shoot it out a bow/crossbow with no less than 65G force applied or it will not lit.  Accidental turn on is no longer an issue as you can drop the arrow/bolt horizontally as high as 21′(7M) without being lit.  Couple with the latest Mosfit electronic and assembly methods, mathematically we have achieve previously un think of 99.9999% reliability(1) for a lighted nock.

Firenock “G” series, unlike the previous magnetic activated Firenock’s products, the new Firenock “G” series products do not require a magnet for activation of the lighted nock system. Firenock “G” series just works like magic; the LED gets on when it is shot. There is no need for actuator magnet, actuator adaptor, sticker and accidentally “on” if the lighted nock system is exposed to a magnetic field. And there is no more issue if you lost your actuator in the field or drop it from tree stand. Firenock “G” series is really a high-tech piece of equipment with hunter’s mind designs.

On Target- They function as designed.  “EVERY SHOT”!  Before with other lighted nocks I was always worrying if they were going to turn on and I was pretty darn close to forgetting about even trying lighted nocks again.  After seeing first hand the Firenocks work at last years ATA show and hearing the technology behind them my mind was intrigued once again. “I’ll give them a shot”, and they’ve worked perfectly. The assembly isn’t to tough and I can easily change out the batteries when needed.  Thanks Firenock.

Off Target-  They are a bit pricey for a little spender like me. ($54.95 for a pack of 3) But this is one product where I can say, you get what you pay for.

Trophy Rock is the single most powerful natural mineral lick. Extracted from a pristine mineral deposit in central Utah, Trophy Rock descends from an ancient sea bed over 150 million years old, preserved by an embalming layer of volcanic ash.

Outdoor enthusiasts use Trophy Rock to observe, hunt, and harvest quality big game and wildlife. Whether it’s whitetail deer, elk, caribou, antelope, boars, or even black bears. Whether using a bow, a rifle, a muzzle loader, binoculars, or just taking pictures. Trophy Rock is the best supplement available. It’s natural. It’s effective. And it’s beneficial.

On Target – First off, check your states regs and make sure you can use Trophy Rock. Once you know you can use it then you will reap the benefits. This rock is all natural, it can last up to several months, and it works. I figured I’d give it a try and hoped in a couple weeks I’d have some game pics of some bucks using it. It didn’t take but a week and I have several bucks and does frequently using it. It’s easy to use and it’s packed with minerals deer need to be healthy.

Off Target – This is my first year to use Trophy Rock and as of today I have not found one thing I don’t like. I have cameras set up on all my rock stations and all are getting pictures of deer. Let me get a full season under and I’ll let you know if I find a flaw.

I never thought I’d be buying rocks for deer hunting. Over the years I’ve tried numerous attractants, supplements, etc and not one has performed like this. If you’d like more info on the Trophy Rock check out www.trophyrock.com

I’m involved with a new TV show that is airing right now on 4 different networks. It’s a show that is based around having fun, being yourself, and taking members of www.myoutdoorzone.com on hunting and fishing trips of a lifetime. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Black Bears are widely distributed throughout New Brunswick however there are some relatively “untapped” regions where the population is higher, this is where Black Bear Lodge hunts, for both spring and fall seasons. They have eleven hunting sectors 10 to 30 miles apart. Each sector has 3 to 5 bait sites with a distance 2 to 3 miles apart as the crow flies. Their baits are hunted using metal 300 lb. ladder stands with a 500 lb. 2 person capacity. Hunters may bring their own climber and they will have a tree ready for climbing at the bait site. Hunters are transported to their stand and picked up by their guide with his vehicle within a short walking distance. Your Guide will remain in the area at rifle shot hearing distance or FRS radio range for rifle or Bow hunters during the hunt. Check out their site for more details.

June 1st of this year I had the opportunity to go hunt Bear with Black Bear lodge. I have long wanted to hunt bear but have always been hesitant because of not knowing what I’m getting myself into, no good references, etc, etc. I took a chance with Gil at Black Bear Lodge. Gil seem to know what he was talking about in regards to bear. He didn’t sugar coat anything and he didn’t promise anything he couldn’t deliver. He spoke highly of his operation and I took a chance.

I wasn’t going alone to New Brunswick. I was heading up there with a couple other guys to film one of our TV shows for Own the Zone TV. From start to finish it was an awesome experience. Gil, the owner knows his stuff. He made sure we were full at breakfast, supper, and dinner. All our bait sites were active and the laughs carried on from the time we met till the time we got drop off back at the airport. I would like to tell you how many bears went down, why one guy was keeping a little stuffed bear in his Hunter Safety System pocket, but I can’t. Tune in each week on Own the Zone TV to find out what really went down in New Brunswick at Black Bear Lodge. And in the meantime if you’re looking to book a bear hunt for 2009 give Gil a call and tell him Paul from Own the Zone TV sent ya.
