True or False: The glorious white smoke that charmingly wafts out of your charcoal or gas grill from your patio or preferred camping locale, is an all-natural pheromone?
Yes, airborne molecules that elicit a reaction in a member of the same species are called pheromones and according to Kevin Kolman, The Head Grill Master at Weber, your charming personality and stunning good looks aren’t what the ladies are after. They came for the brisket and baked beans. This explains why I have four kids, I love to grill.
The “hotdog” is as American as apple pie. They are inexpensive, can feed an army and can be dressed a million different ways for a quick and delicious meal. This weekend I took to the grill to try a different variation on the dog, and it was a crowd pleaser for sure.
Let me bring you up to date – Horizon Firearms is an awesome custom rifle company. Recently, they began building a custom rifle for us! Many of you have been inquiring about the progress so we have Derrick Ratliff, President and Founder of Horizon Firearms, with us this week to give you a teaser of how it’s coming along! Lucky for y’all, they even sent photos.
Optics are a power piece in any hunter’s gear bag. Whether it’s your binoculars or riflescope, having glass that performs can be the difference in filling your tag or walking away empty handed. This week, we’re introducing you to a relatively new company and one that operates a little differently than the big brands you are familiar with. TRACT Optics takes their product directly to the consumer instead of going through supply chains like the big box stores you are used to purchasing your gear from.
Some of the game and fish laws on the books are pretty bizarre. For example, did you know that in Oklahoma it’s unlawful to promote, engage in or be employed at a bear wrestling event? Holy smokes, what did I miss here? I’ve seen and even tried my hand at steer wrestling, however, going toe to toe with a bruin? I politely decline. The crazy part is that the mere existence of this law means that at some point or another, somebody thought it’d be a good idea to wrestle a bear. We may be the greatest country in the world, but we still have some first-class dingbats that make laws like this necessary.
Happy Birthday America. For 242 years old, you’re lookin’ good! The 4th of July is hands down, my favorite holiday. There is just something about hot summer nights, outdoor cooking, a cooler full of cold drinks, fireworks and a good dose of patriotism that can’t be beat. I honestly, and truly, believe that America is the greatest country in the world, so here are five things I love about the U.S.A.
There are some 6 million vehicular accidents in the U.S. each year which translates to 15,000+ accidents each day. Those statistics should be enough to make everyone want to consider extra safety precautions for their vehicles. Wildlife and off-road debris happen to be something that I encounter often and want protection from, and I know many of you feel the same way based on the comments you've left us previously, talking about your experiences with hitting deer, cows and other wildlife. While protection from these wildlife elements is important, Ranch Hand products also put an extra layer of security between your vehicle, its occupants and other drivers, while you're traveling on the pavement. Jerry Courtney, VP of Marketing for Ranch Hand, joins us this week for an in-depth look at the safety Ranch Hand grille guards, front bumpers and back bumpers provide.

The 2018 Ford-150 is the Motor Trend Truck of the Year and has been the No. 1 selling vehicle in America for 36 years. Even more amazing – last year Ford sold an F-150 almost every 35 seconds. Clearly, I’m not the only one with an affinity for Ford Trucks and specifically the F-150.
Now, the first ever, F-150 diesel is making its debut, turning heads and raising eyebrows. Joining us this week to show off this brand-new beast is Travis Calhoun, the F-150 Consumer Marketing Manager at Ford. For all those drivers out there, who are looking for fuel economy while they tow and haul, you are going to be pumped! So, for you outdoorsmen and women who are pulling your boats and campers regularly, or for those people out there that make their living on the road, hauling and towing several days a week, this should speak to you.
