TN 2012 Archery Season
TN 2012 Archery Season
Tennessee Deer season is almost under way. The 2012 archery season will open on September 22nd and will cooler weather already setting in, I would look for good success early this season. Scouting this summer has been a lot more pleasant this year than in recent years. Normally August weather is unbearable and very lucky to get more than the 1st hour or 2 of the morning before it gets to hot. Take advantage of this cooler weather and spend more time doing your homework and watch your success rate improve.

TWRA Internet Check-In Station
TWRA Implementing
Big Game Internet Check-In System
Big Game Internet Check-In System
NASHVILLE --- The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) has announced that it will be launching its first-ever big game internet check-in system this year.
With the new system, TWRA is trying to accommodate hunters who may have difficulty finding an open check station by now allowing those hunters to check their harvested animals in over the internet. The new system can be accessed by visiting TWRA’s main Web site at www.tnwildlife.org or by going directly to the check-in page at www.twracheckin.com.
“The system is open to everybody who harvests a big game animal,” said Daryl Ratajczak, TWRA Big Game Coordinator. “Although we do want our hunters to utilize our check stations, we understand it’s not always a viable option, especially on those late-night retrievals. We also understand that taking a deer to a check station is a tradition for many of our hunters, and with almost 900 check stations statewide, it is a tradition that hopefully will remain strong.”
In the instance that a hunter must use the internet check-in system, he/she should find it user-friendly.
“The new system is really easy to use but it does require that you print out your permanent kill-tag and your next temporary kill-tag,” said Ratajczak. “If for some reason you are unable to print your tags immediately there will be an option for hunters to print a temporary kill-tag from the hunting page on our main Web site.”
Hunters must remember that it is illegal to hunt the following day until all the animals harvested the previous day have been checked-in.

One of the well known gun manufactures to us here in Tennessee closes its plant down starting next week on June 30, 2009. The way guns and ammo sales have been this past year, its hard to believe. Here is what they had to say.
Modern Muzzleloading, Inc. is announcing that it will close its Knight Rifles division in Decatur, AL effective June 30, 2009. The decision to close the Knight operation resulted from an overall industry downturn.
This closure will not affect service of Knight Rifles’ products. Customer service for wholesale and retail customers will be provided by Modern Muzzleloading, Inc. All warranty, non-warranty, and replacement part services will remain in place for the various customer categories and all customers will have access to experienced service personnel for consultation, questions, and repair of Knight products (in serviceable condition.) Sales of Knight’s parts and accessories will be also be handled by Modern Muzzleloading, Inc.
Until June 30, 2009, you are requested to continue to use your regular customer contacts and service department personnel. Prior to Knight’s closure on June 30, 2009, you will be provided with new customer service contact information.
Modern Muzzleloading, Inc. will continue to operate the office functions for Knight so as to provide continuity for its customers and vendors until resolution is concluded.
