Blake Revels, owner and operator of the Double R Ranch, harvested this 30″ axis buck on Friday, May 21st on his Texas ranch.
We actually spoke to Blake as he was preparing to go out for this evening hunt he had mentioned that he had tried countless times to put the ka-bosh on a big axis buck with his bow with no such luck. Well, persistence paid off for Blake on this outing as his determination and straight shooting were rewarded with a fine trophy axis that afternoon.
We like to think we had some hand in bringing him some good luck!

SHEMANE NUGENT IN AFRICA by Ted Nugent
The grace, the beauty, the shape, the form! I don’t know if I can handle it, in fact, I know I can’t! My wife Shemane is so beautiful, it is stupid, or at least it makes me stupid. But when she picks up her bow and arrow, gently knocks her arrow on the string, then smoothly draws her bow back to her lips, I gaze gaga, like a kid at his first dance. And dance we do!! I don’t know much about Venus, but if ever a woman was at her most sensuous, it is surely at full draw. Talking about eye candy! You oughtta try to videotape her in a small blind sometime and maintain your composure and focus. Is it getting hot in here?
Her dainty pink Martin bow looks so girly as it is, add her pink Victory arrows with the pink and white fletching, her pink ScentLok cap and the tight fitting pink Mossy oak camo t-shirt, and the whole package confirms that bowhunting is ultimately made for women. Shemane and I are dedicated to spread that word and recruit as many women into the greatest sport on earth as much as we can. I do believe it is the future.
We see and understand the amazing success of Lee and Tiffany on their TV shows. Sexy little Tif is stunning too, and more so when she draws down on one of those heart slamming monstrous Iowa behemoth whitetails. We got She Safari TV, Beyond The Lodge, Archers Choice, Pat and Nicole, the gorgeous Michelle Eichler on Muzzy Bad To The Bone TV. Everybody likes to watch Jim Shockey and more so when his beautiful wife joins him onscreen. Karen Meehall does an exemplary job on NRA’s American Hunter television, and more and more women are showing up on hunting shows all the time and I for one love it all. As Motley Crew sang, “Girls, Girls, Girls”. Let’s get it on! (more…)
This story was submitted to us by Jimmy of Darkwoods Blind, who do their part to offer and sponsor hunts for some of our wounded war veterens. This is Ronnie Guillion’s story, recanting his hunt on the Smart Ranch in Texas.
One Wounded Warrior’s Hunt Of a Lifetime
by SFC Ronnie Gullion
Wounded Warriors Project w/ the vets from the 101st Airborne, Fort Campbell, KY
I met Jimmy “the Mullet” and his business partner Mikey during a Wounded Warrior hunt at Smart Ranch Exotics in Texas. They asked me to choose one of the well-deserving heroes hunting with me for a bonus Asiatic water buffalo hunt.
You see, Mullet man and Mikey are representatives of Darkwoods Blinds and were at the Smart Ranch to shoot some promotional videos for their exceptional handicapped-accessible ground blinds. I did not want the pressure of choosing just one soldier to take part in this remarkable opportunity. I simply did not want to be the one to decide who’d get to experience the hunt of their lifetime and who would be disappointed.
I suggested that we leave it to luck or fate. I told all of the more-than-willing hunters to put their military identification cards into a hat and let Jimmy pull out the lucky one. Although I’m a Wounded Warrior as well, I was somewhat reluctant to place my ID into the hat because my hunting companions were also my heroes, and I wanted one of them to win the hunt. With some poking, prodding and an order from my former Command Sergeant Major David Allard, I placed my ID into the hat as well. Out of all of the IDs in the hat, of course, mine was drawn. Although I desperately wanted to participate in the hunt, I really wanted one of my guys to have the experience. I thought about giving the hunt to someone else, but that would have put me back into my original position of having to choose one person. (more…)
