A compound bow is guaranteed to take your archery practice to the next level. The ease of using a compound bow means more arrows on target and a lower likelihood of coming home from your next hunting trip empty handed.

Compound bows utilize a levering system of cables and pulleys to bend the limbs. Through this system, the user only needs about 20-30 percent of the effort that would be required to draw and shoot a traditional bow, such as a recurve bow or longbow (1).

Compound bows also shoot arrows much faster than traditional bows. This means the arrow flies through a flatter arc and increases its relative accuracy. It also means arrows arrive at their target with greater force, which will improve the likelihood of a kill when an arrow hits its mark.

Rechargeable batteries are a more cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to standard AA and AAA batteries. Standard batteries contain heavy metals, including mercury, lead, cadmium, and nickel, which can contaminate the environment when if not properly disposed of.

Every year in the United States alone, nearly 3 billion dry-cell batteries are purchased to power radios, toys, cell phones, watches, laptops, and a variety of other electronics (1). Rechargeable batteries reduce the need to purchase single-use batteries and decrease the number of heavy metals that wind up in landfills and dispersed in the air.

When things go bad you don’t want to be in the dark. It’s never a good feeling to be unaware of whether a storm will get worse before it gets better or to feel unsure about the possibility of rescue arriving before your situation gets worse.

An emergency radio will help you stay connected to the latest news and updates even when the Internet is down or the power is out. It can be your last line for receiving critical, life-saving information in an emergency situation.

The most basic purpose of emergency radios is to provide a functional means of receiving AM and FM broadcasts in the event of a power outage or isolation from civilization. These radios typically operate on minimal or renewable power sources, such as batteries or solar power (1).
