Barb Said “Yes” To Onos Sunglasses

A hat and good polarized sunglasses are a pre-requisite for any outdoor adventure!

APtravelnews-October 17th- Lake Point Resort State Park, near historic Eufaula, Alabama-Southeastern Outdoor Press Association 51st Annual Conference-As this exciting event winds down on its last day, Barb and I wanted to let our readers know about a few products and events that were part of the October 14th-17th conference. First up: Barb and I spend a lot of time boating and fishing, so a great pair of sunglasses is not a convenience, it’s a “must have.” Once again after about 4-years, we visited with Chris Nelson of Onos Trading Company, Mobile, AL. Polarized Performance Sunglasses . It was time for Barbara to update her eye-wear frame color, as we knew that Onos are “clearly superior sunglasses with more choices for reader power.” The glasses have “strong and better quality frames, lenses and grips than leading brands” according to Chris Nelson from Onos. These sunglasses have a lifetime warranty and offer Bifocal Readers in 5 add powers, Plano Lens with no Bifocal and they are Opthamalic Quality. With 4-different lens colors and coatings and a price point that is less and amazingly competitive with most of the high price spread glasses on the market so Barb opted for Onos!

Talking Turkey? Well, Check Out These Call Boxes and a Very Neat Compact Skinn

P1030388APtravelnews-New Products-April 25th, Goose Holler’ Farm-When we were in Indianapolis, Indiana at the huge archery show (ATA) we found several products that we wanted to alert our outbox door sports readers about.  From Knight and Hale Legendary Calls we picked up a Bloodwood Cutter Turkey Call model KHT2001 the wood is rich and the craftsmanship is perfect for an easy use realistic sounding box that will bring a turkey to attention with its deep resonance and authentic sounds mimicking real talking turkey! This is an PRADCO Outdoor Brands Product. Look for it at all hunting supply stores! Go: www.knightandhale.com

Another Box call we really liked was a Primos Hunting products, Hookup, Magnetic Box Call. The magnetic lid automatically applys the correct pressure “for perfect calls everytime!” This is an innovative designed call box and it is a beautifully executed piece of work as well. The rich Gobbles from their “Gobble Band” produces some of the most realistic gobbles possible! Check this pretty, yet no nonsense box also at all hunting supply stores, as well! Both boxes are made in the good old USA! Go www.primos.com

The third item we found was the Raptor Razor Combo Field Dressing Knives. These are big game and small game skinning knives for hunting  enthusiasts. Whether for fishing, industrial use, boating, and of course hunting, the Mako Model and Big Game Skinner Model will probably be the last set of blades you’d need to handle any game gutting, cleaning and skinning needs! Take a look at www.raptorrazor.com  or give a call to: 808-638-8281P1030392P1030391P1030390P1030389
