By Mark Kenyon I don’t know about you, but when the rut hits, I hit the road. Whether it be driving back and forth from home to a nearby hunting spot or traveling to other states in search of big bucks, I spend a lot of time in the truck this time of year. That […]

The VRL-1 system comes standard with a 30mm scope mount with 1″ adapter, scope ring for mounting when in the field, dual station charger, 2 pack of 10 year 18650 2600mah lithium rechargeable batteries, tail cap with pressure switch, normal push button tailcap to make your light into a flashlight and complete instructions.
The VRL-1 is only 7 inches long and only weighs 10 ounces with a battery. Our lights are made of Aircraft Grade Aluminum with a clear glass lens. There are no filters used in the lights since we use special Cree Led that emit an incredible amount of light through an extremely accurate highly polished reflector to achieve a long range varmint light.
The battery life with the green LED will run for 2-4 hours continues per battery. The life with the red led will be between 2-3 hours because it uses more power than the green model…
The light only uses one battery at a time; we will have an extension that will add a battery for longer use soon.
This is the best package on the market with a true 2600mah battery instead of a 2400mah like the competition, and better mounts.
WARNING: Make sure you detach the velcro switch from your weapon, and allow the coiled cord to rotate freely (360 degrees) when removing or installing the tailcap. You can twist or break the wires inside the coiled cord if you do not follow this warning.

My first bow season is over. In Vermont, bow season ended Sunday, spanning a few weeks (October 4-26). I can honestly say that participating in my first season was the highlight of this year for me. No, I didn’t get a deer, but my husband did, which means our family has fresh venison in the freezer.
We hunted on different ends of our property. I heard deer when they spotted me (before I spotted them), snorting and trumpeting ten yards away from my stand, which startled me. My trail cam captured images of them during the late night (10:30 p.m.), so I know they were there (just not when I was), which makes me aware that my first bow season was no different than what a lot of others experience.
Even though I didn’t get to use one of my broadheads, I did gain quite a bit from this first season. What I gained from spending time in a tree stand, watching either the sun rise or set, was a deeper appreciation for the nuances in nature that are often overlooked due to the busyness of life. Getting away from the hecticness and chaos that surrounded me in metropolitan Detroit was the catalyst for our move from city to country. Learning how to bowhunt and actually going out this fall gave me a better appreciation for squirrel warfare, black-capped chickadee songs, and the roar of the waterfall. These sounds made up my tree stand soundtrack.
From conversations I’ve had with many other hunters, it appears that Vermont has an incredibly short bow season. There will be an additional two week window that parallels muzzleloader season in late December, but for the most part, this first season is the main one (I think).
It was also an interesting juggle for my husband and I to trade tree stand time so that one of us was at home with our daughter. Typically, I went out in the mornings and he went out in the evenings, though I also went out several evenings following the success of his doe harvest as he took a few days off. Yes, he did get a doe during the first week only about 100 yards from our house and our freezer is full of the ultimate local meat.
How is your season going? Have you had any success?

Population control and herd management are the focus of an all-new episode of Destination Whitetail. Tune in to the Sportsman Channel tonight at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT to hear the experts weigh in on best practices and hunter tactics.
Due to successful conservation efforts, the deer population in North America today has soared to more than 25 million. On this week’s Destination Whitetail, experts discuss the unique problems that go hand-in-hand with that high number and shed light on the ways in which hunters can help control population.
Hunting expert Charles Alsheimer delivers information on the specific challenges in working to control deer in urban areas, and discusses why he believes deer contraceptive methods could fail. Viewers will hear about the advantages of legalizing—and monetizing—hunting in those urban areas to control whitetail population.
The Destination Whitetail cameras also travel to Lake County, Illinois for an urban bow hunt during the rut. Climb into the tree stand with Jerry Milo as he tracks bucks and tries to get the clean kill. Plus, Steve Bartylla is on hand to offer tips on improving accuracy in the field and attracting deer all year long.
Tune in to Destination Whitetail Oct. 22 at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT for the exciting hunt and lots of great information for any hunter.
Destination Whitetail, produced by F+W Outdoors, premiered in 2012 on the Sportsman Channel. The series investigates the people, places and ways to hunt whitetail throughout North America. In the 43 states that have deer populations, their habitat varies as greatly as the traditions and methods used to hunt them.
Destination Whitetail goes behind the scenes with some of the outdoor industry’s most prolific personalities and learns how whitetails have contributed to their success. After its first season, Destination Whitetail was named a finalist for the 2012 Sportsman Choice Awards for “Best New Series.”
