• Arrachera Venison Steak

    Arrachera Venison Steak

      Venison can be a tough meat to cook. It’s super lean, and sometimes tastes a bit gamey. Having some variety on spices and flavors to cook it in is handy, and I thought this recipe came across awesome. We marinated the steaks for about 8 hours. Marinade: 2 tsp black pepper 2 tsp garlic…

  • Taking New Hunters Shooting

    Taking New Hunters Shooting

    A good first experience shooting is a fundamental part of getting new hunters into the tradition. Plenty of new hunters are thrown into the sport without adequate firearms training and they can be a bit of a menace to themselves and to the wildlife.

    It’s here, check out my review on the T97 FTU (Flat Top Upper) Seeing as there are an estimated 2000 Norinco T97’s in Canada now, there remains a list of things in the design that need to be addressed, namely the lack of decent optics mounting.
