So many things to talk about and so little time! For those who think we are in the off season with not a lot to do, I am quickly learning that there is no off season. We have had a lot of great things happening at Wired Outdoors. First, I wanted to take a minute and thank the Parker Polar Bear Club of Parker, Pennsylvania for raising over $1700 for our “Hunt Of A Lifetime” kids! The Polar Bear jump into the chilly waters of the Allegheny River was a tremendous success and there were many Wired Outdoors fans in attendance. Due to the short notice this year, I wasn’t able to make it, but I promise you, I will be there next year. Thanks again to the Polar Bear Club and all the Wired Outdoors fans who joined us on this special day for a great cause.

This time of year when we aren’t jumping in freezing cold water we are looking for other adventures.  One thing I have always wanted to do is chase free ranging wild hogs and I recently had the opportunity to chase some pigs in North Central Florida with Florida Cracker Outfitters.  I was definitely under the perception that hunting hogs was a slam dunk and they are a dumb animal.  I couldn’t have been more off base.  Not only are they very fast and never stop moving, they have a nose every bit as good as a whitetail and if they smell you, it is all over.  We only had a two day hunt planned and were able to close the deal on two pigs, but I was the odd man out and didn’t get it done.  However, I will be heading back to Florida on March 2 to not only get a pig with my bow, I also plan to wrastle one.  You are probably saying, “What are you talking about, wrastling a hog?”  You will just have to stay tuned for more details, but I will guarantee it will be very entertaining.

Last but not least we are very excited and can’t wait to meet many of Wired Outdoors fans at this year’s Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. We are a corporate sponsor of the show and look forward to this event every year.  It is a great way for us to meet and talk to many of our fans.  If you have never been to the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show or maybe you haven’t visited in few years, if you love the outdoors, you owe it to yourself to visit the show.  It is the largest show of its kind in the world!  If you can’t make it to the show, we will be streaming live video all week long with people like, Michael Waddell, Lee & Tiffany, Stan Potts, The Bennoits, and more.  Visit our website at www.WiredOutdoors.com for more information and schedule of all the interviews.
