NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. was recently in Columbus for a few days filming television commercials for Realtree, the world's leading camouflage designer, marketer and licensor. That's not where his support of the local company's new lifestyle apparel line, Realtree Outfitters, ends.
JR Motorsports, the management company and racing operation for Earnhardt, has agreed to a partnership with Delta Apparel to promote the Realtree Outfitters licensed brand. Realtree Outfitters will receive primary placement on the No. 88 Chevrolet in five NASCAR Nationwide Series events this year.
The complete schedule for the Delta Apparel/Realtree Outfitters-sponsored races includes New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Saturday, Iowa Speedway on July 31, Bristol Motor Speedway on Aug. 20, Dover International Speedway on Sept. 25 and Gateway International Raceway on Oct. 23.
Earnhardt will be behind the wheel at Bristol while Elliott Sadler will drive at New Hampshire and Dover. Drivers for Iowa and Gateway are still to be determined.
“Both Dale Jr. and Elliott truly love the outdoors and both have spent time hunting and fishing with us over the years,” said Realtree President Bill Jordan who hosts Bill Jordan's Realtree Outdoors on ESPN. “We could not be more pleased to have these two drivers behind the wheel of the Realtree Outfitters Chevrolet.” Click Link Below For Full Story!

Michael Waddell on Hunting Techniques – West Virginia Outdoors News

He’s one of the best known names in the hunting industry today and Michael Waddell says while practice with your bow is important, quality is better than quantity.
“I think a lot of people think just practice, practice, practice with a bow and arrow makes perfect. I’m a little bit in disagreement with that,” said Waddell during a recent edition of West Virginia Outdoors.
Waddell is the host of television’s Bone Collector Series. He says his time on the road keeps him far too busy to get very many opportunities in front of a 3-D target. Therefore, when he is able to get in a few shots, he tried to make them count.
“I might now have but 20-minutes on a Saturday, so I try to get good solid practice,” said Waddell. “Even if I only shoot ten arrows I try to make sure that my form and my habits in that small time frame are as efficient and as good as I can.”
Waddell adds there’s a difference in shooting 3-D targets and actually drawing down on a live whitetail in the woods.
“You know the deer’s 25-yards, you practiced all summer and you ask yourself, ‘How did I shoot over that deer?’ or ‘How did I hit him that high?’” explained Waddell. “Video has proved deer react, so I get in the habit of holding heart to top of the heart with my pin once I’ve got an accurate distance. Very rarely do I shoot one in the heart, I usually shoot them through the double lung.”
Deer almost always react to the “thwack” sound created when you let go of the bow. Typically a deer will drop into an alert, crouched position. Waddell says the number one mistake hunters make is failing to aim low while hunting and compensate for that immediate drop. Click link below for full story!
