Camo Cornhole Game

What is Cornhole you ask?
Cornhole is one of the fastest growing games sweeping across America. Originating in Cincinnati, Ohio, this game is currently one of the most popular tailgating games around. It’s like horse shoes with corn filled canvas bags and target boxes. It is fantastic family fun and is a very addictive game you will not want to stop playing once you start.
Cornhole boxes have a surface area of 2-feet by 4-feet, and they gradually slope upward so the rear is several inches taller than the front. A 6 inch opening is situated close to the back. The goal is to toss 6-inch square cornbags, filled with authentic corn kernels, toward the hole at a lengthy distance.
Teams of two compete with four beanbags per person and two total boards. First team to 21 points wins. A hole-in-one counts as three points, and every other beanbag that lands on the board counts as one point. Players can cancel opponents point values by earning the same amount of points in a single turn.
Once you play, you can’t stop!

Just a Swingin'

Wendy asked if I would do a guest post for her about her sons first deer he recently took thinking my post would show a little more humor then a post she might write because I write about humor. After reading the story and seeing the photos, I’m not so sure I’m the best person to write about this. I don’t hunt and have never seen anyone hoist a deer up in a tree or swing set for that matter. But I’m going to do my best.

Wendy’s son Holden got his first deer (cow horn buck) weighing 205lbs. I can only imagine how proud a Father would be at this moment. His son with his first deer and the excitement of what comes after. Aww the sweet lessons a Father will pass on to his son. Hoisting that baby up in a swing set to get it cleaned.

You can just feel the excitement and confidence on Holden’s face…This is a piece of cake.

Maybe this might be a little harder then I thought. Get the gloves and more muscle.

One slip of my foot and that girl will be air born.

Aww look at little blondie with folded arms giving instructions. She is my kind of girl. And she’s wearing pink. Luv her.

You know when you’re a kid and your parents tell you to stop laughing but that makes you laugh even harder? This is no laughing matter. Get that deer up.

And no job is complete without the help of these two little buddies.

And would you look at this…I think they finally got it. All that strength, sweat and rope burns has paid off.

Wendy had this to say about that night, “That night turned into a anatomy lesson for all the young ones sitting around watching. Questions were asked – What is that, where is the heart, do I have those parts too? Not once did we hear ewww gross. That night was a test of strength, wits, and funny moments! I thought I would bust a gut just watching them.”

Congratulations to Holden on his first deer and I can say this without a doubt, I would have been standing there with my arms folded in my pink top saying EWWW.

***  I would like to thank Jody from The Hunter’s Wife for being my guest post this week! Jody did a great job with one of our many funny family moments!

Teaching Children Hunting Safety

When becoming a parent you have many great moments in life that you will forever remember, and stories that will be told at the dinner table for years and pasted on for generations.

North Carolina’s bow season opened on September 12th.  Following the trail cams and learning  how to be patient is tough for children, many adults as well.  When hunting season arrives and you head out on opening day patience seems to fly right out the window.  Safety is something that should never be taken for granted even on opening day!

Teaching children about Hunting Safety must be first and foremost. Going out on your first hunting trip should NOT be about getting that first harvest. It should be about  teaching your children safety.  Explain to them what is happening, listen to the sounds,  point out animals, birds and other wildlife you see as well as survival tips.  Walk the trails, learn points of reference, scrap tress along the trail incase you get turned around.  We always have our children to lead us off the trail to be sure they are familiar with their surroundings. Safety Should ALWAYS COME FIRST! First Buck in NC

When teaching children about Hunting Safety remember these rules:

 

  1. Treat every gun as if it is loaded.
  2. Point your gun in a safe direction.
  3. Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.
  4. Be sure of your target and all points surrounding target.
  5. Notify someone where you will be hunting and how long you expect to be gone.
  6. Avoid hunting alone. If you go alone, hunt in familiar areas.
  7. Dress properly and be prepared for the every possible conditions.
  8. Check the weather forecast before going into the woods.
  9. Identify your target before shooting.
  10. Check all hunting equipment before and after each outing, and maintain it properly. 
  11. Wear  blaze orange to be highly visible to other hunters.
  12. Don’t drink alcohol or take drugs before or while handling firearms or bow and arrows.

Hunting Survival Kit

  1. Compass
  2. Pen & Paper
  3. String
  4. Flashlight and GPS
  5. Survival Candle
  6. Swiss Army Knife
  7. Waterproof matches
  8. Small First Aid Kit
  9. Batteries for flashlight and GPS device
  10. Signaling Mirror
  11. Rescue Whistle

***With all of the safety rules covered go out and enjoy the outdoors with your children.  Teach, observe, survive!  You will forever have memories to be sure to last a lifetime.

Surf and Sheds on TV

Surf and Sheds started out like many other people out there dreaming to open there own business.  Economic factors almost had us delay the process, but we figured the economy can only go up from here, right??  Growing our business has been one of our greatest accomplishments.  Being a small business owner you can choose to be on your own or venture out to meet other business owners that can offer a helping hand and it does not hurt if they respond well to your product!

Surf and Sheds has been well received by many companies in the outdoor fields.  Companies such as Camo-Da-Dogg, Team Huntress, Camp Wild Girls and Base Camp Legends, as well as the Outdoors Blogger Summit that supports our Blog in many ways. Linking to so many other outdoor websites was one of the first things we started doing.  People would contact us, just because they love our logo.  Which is how we found Hook and Hunt TV. We first spoke to Jim Crowley on Twitter. He said ” I had to go back and look at your logo twice, did I just see a deer skull on a surfboard?” Shortly after connecting on Twitter we were on the phone discussing contest and how we could help one another grow our business. While we were speaking on the phone one day Jim was placing an order, that started a great friendship between the two companies. I received an email informing me to stayed tuned to Hook and Hunt TV for the next two weeks. Surf and Sheds would be featured in two different segments. Jim Crowley travels to many different places to find the best areas to cast your line, and places you would not normally here of to lay your head after a big hunt. If you have not checked out his show, please follow the links and watch his weekly show!

Please stop in and say hi to Jim at Hook and Hunt TV as his slogan says…”Give us a Shot and you’ll be Hooked”
