Our intrepid editor Mike Schoby and his lovely bride Dora the Explorer have been gallavanting about darkest Africa for weeks now, and fans of his neener-neener blog about their exploits have been worried about the lack of photos to illustrate their journey across South Africa by trains, planes and automobiles.
Finally a crossbow for shooting grouse on your bowhunt without wasting $20 carbon arrows. Alright, this would actually only kill baby grouse, but archery geeks (archerholics?) will dig it just the same.

Most of us have had an otherwise good gun dog that sometimes comes back with a conspicuous amount of feathers in their mouth…but no bird. Sooner or later they all seem to do it, at least when they’re young. This vid is a fantastic reminder for all who have seen the sheepish look on their dog’s face. Labs especially just can’t hide their guilt.
Letters are still coming in five months later commenting on the Dirty Dozen: Worst Deer Calibers Ever! story we ran in November…for which we were swamped with letters and web-hits .
