The Umarex air saber is my favorite arrow slinging device of any kind with or without a string, but due to its propulsion method it comes with some challenges I did not anticipate, like arrow tuning. In the following paragraphs I will do my best to explain to you how to do it and help you get t...

How do you like to measure power? For me it depends on what you are talking about. If we are talking about lightbulbs, watts or watt equivalent will let me know how much light output to expect from that bulb. If it is an internal combustion engine, then horsepower and torque help tell the story for me. But when it comes to guns, from firearms to airguns, there are two common ways to describe power output and, depending on where you are from, one might be more common than the other.

Thousands of airgunners are getting ready for the most-exciting and anticipated time of the year - deer season. But suppose you’re new to the world of hunting with a PCP airgun like an Umarex Hammer? What do you need to know before your first season hunting big game with air?

In the south, we have false seasons. False Spring where we have a few warm days only to be followed by a couple weeks of bitter cold and lousy weather. Then we have false Summer. This is where the mercury creeps up into the 90s, but the water is still in the 50-60s– too cold to swim, but hot enough you want to.

Everyone loves an underdog story. If you don’t, I have no idea what it could be, but there’s something wrong with you.

Us old timer’s know a thing or two, don’t we? Well, we should know that we don’t have all the time in the world. Not to draw to somber a point as to why, but you never know when your ticket is going to get punched.

It’s been a minute or two since air archery came on the scene. We’ve had our AirSaber on the market for more than three years now and it has been a hit all over the world at this point.  However, here in the US, the wheels of bureaucracy turn slow. With that said, what is the current state of legality for hunting with air archery or what some refer to as an airbow?

This year almost sorta seems like things are getting back to normal– or at least inflation has slowed down a touch, a certain bug no longer has people paralyzed with fear, and travel restrictions are essentially gone. Yes, it’s not 2019 by any means, but it ain’t 2020 or 2021 either. With this being the case, people are getting out for some serious airgun hunting adventures and seeing the world, too.

So you took your favorite Umarex air rifle into the woods and brought back a limit of squirrels - now what? Head to the kitchen, of course! While you can use squirrel meat in just about any dish as a substitute for other game or poultry, here are three of our favorite ways to prepare it.
