We just got the new Toxic Broadheads in and started shipping them last week. The response has been surprisingly overwhelming! I will admit, when I first saw this broadhead advertised, I was a bit skeptical. But then I talked to the owner, Chris Rager. Mr. Rager has a lot of experience with archery accessories as the former owner of Trophy Ridge and Rocket Broadheads! When he started thinking about a revolutionary new broadhead design he already had the advantage of knowing what bowhunters wanted: – a broadhead that would fly straight and create the most hemorrhage in
an effort to harvest an animal as quickly and humanely as possible.
Most bowhunters know the reasons that fixed blade broadheads have such a following: they are typically low profile and durable. But mechanical broadheads seem to fly so much better.
The Toxic broadhead just might be the perfect blend of both worlds. It flies as straight and quiet as a field tip, it has great penetration,
and it has reduced wind drag for making those tricky shots count when
the weather conditions aren’t always cooperating. It’s low profile to
reduces the chance of making contact with bone, it has over 4.7 inches
of cutting surface making it second to none in its category, and most of
all, it has no moving parts, set screws, clips, O-rings or rubber
bands. The fewer moving parts the better!
The Toxic broadhead is a true 'coring' broadhead. Watch their video of the water jug test...and see for yourself why 4.7 inches of cutting surface just might be more important than cutting diameter.
I think there are several reasons that more youth are
interested in our sport of archery than ever before. The National Archery
in The Schools (NASP) program is probably one of the biggest reasons. I
love the Genesis bow and that is what they use in the NASP program. The Genesis
Bows function similar to a recurve in that the weight 'stacks' so the
further you pull the bow back, the more weight you are pulling back. This makes
it easier for two kids to share the bow or an adult and a child. The
Genesis 'looks' like a compound which is better in the eyes of kids that have a
parent that shoots a compound bow.
If you are a beginner in the sport of archery or you have a
child that is, I think there a couple of important things to keep in mind.The goal is that every shot is consistently
executed.But more than that, the goal
should be that it is executed with correct form.I like to start with foot placement or ‘stance.’The way you stand when you shoot your bow, will become a habit.This is why I think it is an important place
to start.If you don’t, you might have a
habit that isn’t a good one.I like to
see a shooter stand with their feet shoulder width apart and with their toes
pointing at a ninty- degree angle from the target.I think this stance encourages the correct
upper body position when shooting.
Next, I like to look at the bow hand and the way the shooter
holds the bow and the way their hand lays in the grip.Placement of the archer’s hand in the bow
grip should happen before the bow is drawn, not while you are at full
draw.The archer, especially the young
archer, should get in the habit of laying their hand on their bow grip exactly
the same way for every shot.So many
things during your shot can be affected by your bow hand.Here is the way I like to explain the way
your bow hand should interact with your bow grip to archers, young and
old!Straddle your bow grip where your
thumb and forefinger act as your legs would on a motorcycle.Then, just gently lay your hand down.
That is the first part of my lesson for begging archery and
helping your young archer!Stay tuned
for the more and Please send pictures of your young archers and what has helped
to info@eaglearchery.com so we can
post them on this blog!

Bow sightshave been around in various manifestations for many years.Bow hunters and competitive shooters alike swear by their favorite sights claiming that the sights make accuracy rates explode and consistent positive results are a given with the latest advances in sights technology. Accuracy in shooting is made up of two major components.First, muscle memory where you repeat an action until it becomes engraved on the muscle movements. Second is the focus and direction of the shot so that accuracy to the target is defined. Both factors or either are helpful in improving accuracy.
Technology
Modern technology is a continual process of improving and refining the products that are used every day.This is true of bow sights as well as other products.Bow sights range from simple peep sights to complex adjustable pin sights and even sights that use laser technology to point at the target. Peep sights consist of a small hole in a ring that allows you to narrow the field of vision so that you are more focused on the target.Laser technology puts a laser beam on the target so that you follow with your eyesight and zero in on the accuracy.
Repetition
No matter which type of bow sights you choose to use in your bow hunting adventures or your competitive shooting efforts, repeating the actions that lead to better results will make your accuracy continue to improve.Bow sights help you to line up the bow on the target so that you learn through trial and error which actions and moves result in success.Pin sights, for example use a small sight pin attached to the sight ring on either a horizontal or vertical plane.With multiple pins, they are lined up to match the distance to the target, such as 20 yards, 30 yards, or 40 yards.
Accuracy
The purpose of bow sights, regardless of the use you place on your archery equipment, is to improve the accuracy of your shooting.If you are a bow hunter, you depend on accuracy in your shots to provide a clean kill.Of course, a competitive shooter wins the contest when he or she is able to consistently hit the precise targets that are intended.As you use the bow sights in the way they were intended, you improve your accuracy resulting in a higher accuracy rate because you identify the target more precisely so that you can then identify the moves needed to hit the target.
Convenience
Bow sights are designed and intended to provide convenient methods to improve the accuracy.These devices are easy to use and in most cases fairly easy to install and sight in. The type of sights that you select will depend on the type of shooting that you do. You may need a light weight sight for moving easily across the hunting ground. You may prefer a heavier device to add stability for your competitive shooting. The convenience of the sights is important in improving your accuracy.
