In a few short weeks, we will celebrate our 46th annual awards banquet. Join us for amazing seminars, shoot a round or two on the 3D range (indoor and outdoor) and bid on that hunt you’ve had your eye on at the live auction. We hope to see you there!

In 2004, Curt began hunting on camera for Bowhunter TV and was named host of the show in 2009. That same year, Curt authored his first book, The Modern Bowhunter – Geared Up!, and served as Editor of the Pope and Young Club’s Bowhunting Records of North American Whitetail Deer, Third Edition.
