Gifts For The Bird Hunter – Season Shot The Flavoured Ammo

No Comments
Filed Under Food Gear Non-Fishing Oddities

Season Shot is the “ammo with flavour.” This ammunition is made from tightly packed seasoning bound by a fully biodegradable food product. You actually shoot the seasoning right into the bird with deadly impact and flavouring, or “shoots, kills, seasons” as they say. The seasoning pellets, which replace the traditional metal pellets, actually melt into the meat flavouring the bird from the inside so you don’t have to pick them out when cleaning your birds.

* Ok, this product isn’t actually available for this christmas season and the prices haven’t been set yet either. Still it would make a novel gift for the bird hunter. But hopefully they’ll be out next year, so keep them tucked away in your christmas notes for next year.

Fishing Gift Ideas 2010 – Digital Cameras!

Filed Under Fishing Photography

Every fisherman should have a decent camera to capture their catches. There are tons of great cameras out there, but here are two of my top picks for fishermen.


Canon D10 – approximately $260

This camera has been around for a couple of years, so the price is now pretty reasonable for what you get. While its not new, it has received excellent reviews from just about every major digital camera site. It shoots stills at a solid 12 mega pixels and captures video at 640×480 – but best of all – it does this underwater too!


Samsung ST500 – approximately $250

Samsung has several offerings with the front and back facing screens (Dual LCD). If you have ever fished alone and tried to photograph yourself with your catch, you know just how valuable this camera could be. It shoots stills at 14 mega pixels and captures video at 720p HD.
