Craig Steele co-owner of CEi Outdoors "The single most important purpose of the Outdoorsman's Resource Guide is to give outdoorsmen the ability to have critical service contact information while in the middle of nowhere. The stories are cool, but the importance of having contact information and phone numbers are invaluable. I don't want to waste my time or money (fuel) while on a hunt or scouting trip. I have waited too dang long for the tags! " Craig Steele co-owner of CEi Outdoors Craig Steele's "NO EXCUSES" Arizona Elk featured in EBJ "I came up with the general idea for the Outdoorsman's Resource Guide in 2008. I watched my hunting costs climb every year and was tired of driving everywhere when something broke or I forgot something while on my hunt or scouting trip. I was born and raised in Northern Arizona, but I still didn't have this information because it's honestly an after thought. Typically we put all of our time into scouting and hunting, but when something happens you really don't have any resources while in the middle of your unit." Craig with one of his 3 P&Y caliber pronghorn[/url]"You see a ton of gimmicky products in the hunting industry, but they make money! Making a quality product for both the resident & non-resident hunter is my first goal. I truly want people to know that I believe in what we are producing and I keep one in my truck and my phone. A very smart business man once told me, if you follow your passion you will be a happier person. Currently, I am sold on this idea because I don't make a dime right now and I can live with that as long as I know my company is not built on a gimmick product."

We just found an UPDATED trailer for On Your Own Adventures. We enjoy this show because within the hunting community there is a lot of pessimistic views on how the opportunity to go hunting for the average guy is dwindling. Randy Newberg makes NO EXCUSES and is the truly showing the pessimists that there is still plenty of opportunity for the average guy. View the full article

About 3 years ago the Arizona Game and Fish Department added several late archery elk hunts to the draw. These are by no means easy hunts to kill a bull, let alone a 350+ bull. Generally they have horrible success rates, so you really have two choices if you want to make the most of your tag. First, you scout your butt off and pray for the best. Second, you hire a quality outfitter to help get it done. 2011 Late Arizona Archery Bull Ty Goodman from Goodman Outfitters sent me this picture of a 370+ Gross bull. This bull was taken on a 2011 Late Arizona Archery Elk Hunt by one of his hunters. Honestly, its one of the biggest bulls we have seen taken on a late archery hunt. Great Job Guys!

It's not about bragging, it's about celebrating my three archery pronghorn antelope success stories. All three of these are P&Y caliber bucks, although I don't really care about the official score as that's not why I hunt. I am also by no means a great shot and because of this I typically have to get closer too my target than most successful bowhunters. I have been extremely blessed to have friends and family operating a camera when all three of these antelope kills unfolded. Anyways, I hope you enjoy and it gets you pumped for the upcoming 2012 hunting season. Have fun, shoot straight, and share your successful stories with us! View the full article
