Critter Decor and Stacey Huston Photo Giveaway

Would you look at these cute little critters…

They are about to go on my wall just as soon as I find the perfect frames. I found this photo at Stacey Huston’s photography site, Stacey Huston’s Photos, and thought it was the perfect picture for my dining room wall.

Because … well … we decorate with critters around here.

What was nice about working with Stacey is that the original picture is the one on the left.  I asked Stacey if I could get the same picture; one facing left and one facing right.  And with a click of a flip, I was able to get two adorable critter pictures.

And I’d like to mention that I took the above picture myself.  (Note: the flash shine there in the center.) Yes, I need a photography class.  You will never see my pictures on the cover of any outdoor magazine like Staceys.

On to the giveaway:

Stacey is offering one of my readers the chance to win one of these beautiful photos…

This one she called Willows

And this one she didn’t have a name on it.  Darn her.  If I knew my critters, I could tell you these are bull elks or cow elks or horse elks.  But I don’t know my critters. For the love of a critter identification class, I’m not sure those are even elk.

If you’d prefer one of the chipmunk pictures instead, we can make that happen.

To enter answer the following question:

Do you have a critter room in your house?

Maybe it’s your basement, or your gun room, or your library, or critters have taken over your house in all rooms, like mine. For the love of bathroom privacy.

• The winner will be selected randomly and the contest will run from today, December 7, 2009 – Thursday, December 10, 2009. The winner will be announced on Friday, December 11, 2009. An e-mail notification will be sent and the winner must claim their prize within 48 hours or a new winner will be selected. US residents only please.

If you’d like to see more of Stacey’s photography, you can visit at – A Focus in the Wild – Photo a day project. Or Stacey Huston’s Photos page.

And if you’re looking for a unique gift for the outdoors person on your gift list, Stacey’s wildlife photography is absolutely beautiful!

Thanks Stacey and good luck all!

Online Shopping with Your Favorite Blogs

If you’re like most people shopping for the perfect Christmas gift, you are probably doing most of your shopping online.  More and more people are shopping right from the comfort of their homes.  But did you know you can do your online shopping while helping support your fellow bloggers?

Here’s how it works:

I have an affiliate link on the left hand side of my blog for Cabelas.  Right now Cabelas is running a promotion for $20 off merchandise orders of $100 or more.

If you click on the link from my blog, you get $20 off your purchase and I would get a commission from Cabelas for your purchase.  Your purchase is completely confidential with Cabelas.  So there are no privacy issues.  It’s that easy.

Help support your favorite blogs by shopping through them this holiday season.  I know that is how I’m shopping this year.

If you run a blog, please make sure your affiliate links are easy to find. I know a few bloggers I wanted to do shopping through but I couldn’t find their affiliate links.

Have a good day all and happy shopping!

NeverGuess Range Finder- I like it so much I added it to the Camp Store!

My biggest obstacle in bow hunting has been the fact that I don’t judge distance very well. Maybe it is the fact that I didn’t ever need to when rifle hunting in the woods of Wisconsin, or maybe it was that I was learning how far away things were, from other people that really couldn’t judge distance either. All I know is that it was hindering me from shooting my target.

I started looking at rangefinders but it was hard to figure out what I needed. I really didn’t want one more thing to have to pick up and put back down to figure out how far away my target was. With two people in the stand while filming, we have more movement than we needed already. I tried “stepping off” certain spots, but if the deer didn’t stop in exactly that spot, how far was my judgment going to be off at that point?

The truth is I no longer worry about distance, because I found the NeverGuess Rangefinder. Made for bow hunters, it straps tightly onto my left fore-arm. One simple push of a button against the bow handle, at full draw, and the laser shoots me back the yardage in an instant. No extra movement to scare away the prey. If the prey moves I can still range it again without ever letting down on my bow.  It even accounts for the angle, when I am up 35 ft. up in a tree.

NeverGuess Rangefinder is a very sturdy product and easy to setup. The rangefinder is housed in anodized camo aluminum housing with scratch resistant lens covers.  The LED light automatically adjusts for low light conditions.

Although I am not a big fan of the Velcro straps and the noise, the peace of mind knowing how far out my target is, far outweighs my annoyance. The team at NeverGuess is also working on a shorter arm guard as well as a left-hand guard. The front sites are now new and improved from an open type site to more of a peep style.

This product retails for $399 and is a must have for those that want to complete an accurate shot. Find it in our Camp Store
