April 28, 2009 Lane Farris

 

After a seemingly endless journey, my good buddy Lane Farris downed his first long beard with a bow! Lane has put the time in the blind with his father Danny for the past few years. Though there have been a few close calls he just never had that perfect shot. Well last week it all came together and a big old Colorado Tom bit the dust. Lane's Brothers; Casey and Austin had their chances early and made good with their trusty .20 gauge. But for O'l Lane, it was a bow-kill or nothing! This level of determination is that of a seasoned Veteran, Lane is only 11 but he is one savvy turkey hunter and archer, keep your eye on this little guy!

Lane.... I commend you, you are my hero bud!

On another note, my buddies over at www.Outbackoutdoors.net are steadily "bringing it" every month to their on-lineOutback Outdoors Video series. Catch the latest action as Adam Wells chase a Colorado mountain lion, this one ends pretty dang cool! The Outback team catches the true essence of the hunt, quality footage, careful editing and stellar content is what seperates these guys from the rest. Webasode 3 will be up soon and the turkey action is well wort the wait!

Good hunting

TURKEY SEASON!

Marc Smith 2009 Turkey Season
What used to be a "hunt when convenient" outing has turned out to be a year long anticipation. I take turkey hunting quite serious these days, matter of a fact an example of this was the Colorado season opener this year. My good friend; Jace Bauserman and I left the trail head at 3:00 AM. The two and a half hour hike in the dark to the remote canyonlands put plenty of distance between us and the weekend warriors. At daybreak we discovered our set-up was near perfect as the gobblers were sounding off just a hundred yards up river. As we glassed the huge ancient cottonwoods, we counted more than 20 Merriam's turkeys on their roost. Just after Sun-up the birds were on the ground and headed our way. I connected on a long beard at 8:00 AM and Jace connected later in the evening as we intercepted birds headed back to their roost. For the rest of this story go to http://www.hoytalphamax.com/ ,Video will be up soon!

Good luck this turkey season and stay safe!

March 19th 2009 T-Bone

Man I am getting pumped for the upcomiong 2009 season. I have been shooting my new Hoyt AlphaMax 32 "Lights Out"!! Also shooting like a champ is my son Travis. He has struggled for years with his archery but it's all coming together for him now. Just last week he was out shooting his target rig, Hoyt Pro Elite and shot a Robinhood in the bulls-eye at 40 yards. He is solid as a rock T-Boneand shooting great form. As a result of his new found confidence, Travis has opted to hunt the High Country with me this year. I can't wait to get above the clouds in Colorado Backcountry in September and watch T-Bone smoke down his first bow buck with his trusty Hoyt Ultratec.

I'll keep you posted!

I am very excited to announce that I am back with Rocket Aeroheads! Since the acquisition of Rocket back in 2004 by Trophy Ridge I have been shooting different brands and styles of broadheads. I have since made good pals with Rocket Marketing Manager; Ross Rinehart. Ross and I hit it off right away and now have a great working relationship. I cant wait to put the already proven 3 blade Meat Seeker and the new 2" two blade 100 grain Meat Seeker to good use this coming season. Check them out at http://www.trophyridge.com/broadheads/

 

Good shooting! Marc
