You no longer have to wait because the time has come, it’s here. The evolution of modern day hunting apparel has arrived with a full line of products being launched in spring of 2014.

Over 30 years of study in environmental surroundings (hunting), fractal research, and natural elements has reached a pinnacle and the result is Treezyn. I personally love the look, feel and quality of the new late season brown Treezyn camouflage and look forward to the new green coming out soon.

CROSSVILLE, Tenn. --- The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) and the Tennessee Department of Agriculture (TDA) are investigating arson fires on Catoosa Wildlife Management Area set during the weekend of Nov. 12-13. The fires burned in more than 100 acres of forest in portions of the management area located in Cumberland County, Tennessee.

2009 Fall Turkey Season

2009 Fall Turkey Season Concludes in Tennessee

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency reports that another successful fall turkey season has concluded. Fall hunters had a consolidated 12-day season which ran from Dec. 7-18. By the stats TWRA has given us, Outdoor Xcursions visited the 4th ranked county in the state on one of there outdoor adventures.

The impact of the shift from a split season to the consolidated season was expected to have little effect on the number of turkeys that were harvested.

“The 2009 fall harvest of 1,931 turkeys was right at the long-term average” said Gray Anderson, TWRA’s wild turkey program coordinator.

Statewide, there were 1,217 hunters that reported harvested birds for an average of 1.6 birds per hunter. About 73 percent of hunters harvested a single turkey and only 2 percent of hunters took over five birds. Maury (142), Smith (105), Giles (102), Rutherford (91) and Lincoln (82) counties were the top five harvest counties.

“Our fall turkey season does a great job of focusing harvest pressure exactly where our regional biologists have identified a management need,” said Anderson.

Applications for the 2010 Spring Turkey Quota Hunts are currently being accepted until Feb. 10, 2010. Interested hunters may apply at any TWRA license agent, TWRA regional office, or online at the TWRA Web site.

For more information about Tennessee’s turkey hunting seasons, refer to the Hunting and Trapping Guide available at all license agents or on the TWRA Web site. Harvest information is also updated on the For Hunters section of the Web site.

Knight Gun Manufacture Shuts Down

Knight Gun Manufacture Closes in Decatur, AL

One of the well known gun manufactures to us here in Tennessee closes its plant down starting next week on June 30, 2009. The way guns and ammo sales have been this past year, its hard to believe. Here is what they had to say.

Modern Muzzleloading, Inc. is announcing that it will close its Knight Rifles division in Decatur, AL effective June 30, 2009. The decision to close the Knight operation resulted from an overall industry downturn.

This closure will not affect service of Knight Rifles’ products. Customer service for wholesale and retail customers will be provided by Modern Muzzleloading, Inc. All warranty, non-warranty, and replacement part services will remain in place for the various customer categories and all customers will have access to experienced service personnel for consultation, questions, and repair of Knight products (in serviceable condition.) Sales of Knight’s parts and accessories will be also be handled by Modern Muzzleloading, Inc.

Until June 30, 2009, you are requested to continue to use your regular customer contacts and service department personnel. Prior to Knight’s closure on June 30, 2009, you will be provided with new customer service contact information. Modern Muzzleloading, Inc. will continue to operate the office functions for Knight so as to provide continuity for its customers and vendors until resolution is concluded. Knight Rifles’ management and staff would like to extend its appreciation to all of the Knight customers for the support of Knight’s products over the years.
