TURN YOUR PHONE INTO A FISHFINDER WITH GARMIN’S NEW STRIKER CAST CASTABLE SONAR

G armin brings sonar to a mobile device so anglers can find and catch more fish – with or without a boat Garmin® International, Inc., the world’s leading marine electronicsmanufacturer, today introduced STRIKER™Cast— a castable fishfinder that delivers sonar wirelessly to a smartphone or tablet. No boat? No problem. STRIKER Cast is a versatile sonar device that anglers can take with them wherever they go. Just cast it out from where the fish are biting that day – the bank, a dock, or even from a kayak – to view fish and structure in crisp detail on the free STRIKER Cast app, compatible with both Apple® and Android™ devices. With STRIKER Cast, anglers can even create their own fishing maps for an even more detailed look at the area they’re fishing. “Now more than ever, consumers are finding ways to spend more time outside enjoying the great outdoors, and for so many, that includes fishing,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice president of global consumer sales. “Whether you’re new to the sport or a seasoned angler fishing from shorelines, docks or piers, STRIKER Cast will help you identify structure and fish, right from the palm of your hand.” Designed for use in freshwater and saltwater (and even for ice fishing), STRIKER Cast delivers excellent sonar performance in both shallow water and deep water – from less than 2 ft. to 150 ft. – and will wirelessly stream sonar and water temperature data from up to 200 feet away. It delivers easy-to- understand traditional 2-D sonar and ice fishing flasher modes, with setting adjustments for gain, range and more. Anglers can even turn on fish icons to view more realistic images of the fish targets and their depth readings directly in the app, so it’s easy to know exactly where to drop the line.

create their own maps with 1-foot contours – and remember that great spot they found – by using Quickdraw Contours software, a free, easy-to-use tool that lets users instantly create personalized HD maps on any body of water. The data collected can be stored within the STRIKER Cast app, and anglers can upload, download or browse collected Quickdraw Contours data from other users from Garmin’s Quickdraw™ Community. Easy to cast and built to last, STRIKER Cast is durable and lightweight, and should be used with a 20 lb. test weight or higher fishing line. The power-savvy STRIKER Cast automatically powers on when it’s floating in water and turns off when it’s not. Rugged by design, it boasts an internal, USB- rechargeable battery that can go for more than 10 hours between charges, and it’s water-resistant to IPX6 and IPX7 standards. STRIKER Cast is available now in two versions: STRIKER Cast GPS with a suggested retail price of $179.99 and STRIKER Cast without GPS, which has a suggested retail price of $129.99.

TENPOINT AND GARMIN DELIVER MOST ACCURATE LONG RANGE CROSSBOW EVER IN THE NEW TENPOINT VAPOR RS470 XERO

Industry leaders TenPoint Crossbow Technologies and Garmin have teamed up to release the most powerful, most accurate long-range crossbow ever – the Vapor RS470 XERO. Delivering supercharged speeds up to 470 FPS and the revolutionary ACUslide cocking and de-cocking system, the Vapor RS470 XERO is equipped with the new Garmin Xero X1i Rangefinding Scope to provide exact aiming at any distance for unmatched long range accuracy. “The Vapor is the most accurate crossbow I have ever shot,” said Rick Bednar, TenPoint CEO. “In teaming with Garmin, it takes our commitment to building the most accurate high-end crossbows to a new level of technological achievement.” The NEW Garmin Xero® X1i crossbow scope with built-in laser range finder is the first of its kind. This auto-ranging digital scope with 3.5X magnification automatically measures distance to a target. A single button press lets you range game up to 250 yards away and reflective targets up to 500 yards away.

Precise illuminated aim points automatically adjust for both distance and brightness conditions to allow you to see your target, unobstructed by reticle patterns. The days of “gap shooting” with multiple aim points are gone, you need merely to range the target by way of the built-in touchpad on the grip and use the single aiming solution provided by the Xero X1i. The Laser Locate™ waypoint projection feature works with compatible Garmin devices (sold separately) to show you exactly where the target was located when the shot or range was taken, so you can better track game or find bolts. In addition, the scope allows you to create custom bolt profiles with unique aim points for each setup, while its Target Lock and Steady Shot features assist with ranging and aiming performance to help improve accuracy. The ACUslide, the talk of the 2020 crossbow market, features the company’s groundbreaking Auto-Brake Gear System, which allows for silent cocking and safe and controlled de-cocking of

the crossbow. The Auto-Brake Gear System eliminates the potential of losing control which can lead to injury or costly bow damage during the de-cocking process. While de-cocking with the ACUslide, the user can remove their hand from the handle at any point, with no other action required – and the handle will stop in place. The 7.5 inch XTEND Adjustable Crank Handle reduces cocking effort to 5-pounds and stores securely into the butt-stock.

the string for an additional 4-inches compared to traditional crossbows, before release – this is a critical component in performance, as the longer the nock remains engaged with the string, the more accurate the arrow will be upon impact. In addition, this center-mounted riser provides superior balance, eliminating the “nose heavy” feel of traditional crossbows and making it easier to hold steady and increase accuracy. The RX7-Cam™ system rotates an industry leading 404-degrees to produce speeds up to an unprecedented 470 feet-per-second. The crossbow’s revolutionary Vector-Quad™ cable technology utilizes four cables instead of the traditional two which eliminates cam lean and generates straight-nock travel leading to same- hole downrange accuracy. The Vapor RS470 XERO features the company’s S1 trigger. This 2-stage, zero-creep design features an advanced roller-sear system that delivers a consistent crisp, 3.5-pound pull. The trigger is equipped with a DFI™ (Dry-Fire-Inhibitor) and is fitted with a nylon-filament arrow retention brush that improves arrow grip and alignment to reduce noise and vibration. An integrated string stop system is also included to further reduce noise and vibration. The crossbow has a 20-inch -MICRO-TRAC™ fluted aluminum barrel that reduces the flight deck surface by an incredible 50%. The minimal string-to-barrel contact increases accuracy and provides string life in excess of 1,000 shots. The barrel is fastened to the ultra-light, two-piece TECH-X™ stock that features multiple weight reducing cutouts, as well as a hollow pocket that houses the ACUslide cocking and de-cocking system. The stock also features an elevated cheek piece which provides the shooter with perfect eye level alignment for the XERO X1i Rangefinding Scope.

The Vapor features a patented reverse draw bow assembly that draws the string through the riser, creating an industry leading 17-inch power stroke. The increased power stroke generates more speed with less draw weight – creating a smoother, quieter shot. The elongated power stroke also keeps the arrow nock engaged with

The Garmin Xero X1i rangefinding scope has magnification of 3.5X, ranges out to 500 Yards with angle compensation, and offers the ability to set the scope up for multiple custom arrow configurations. The scope features Laser Locate, which allows the shooter to mark where the shot was taken for more accurate tracking after the shot. Steady Aim and Aim Point level features let you know motion or canting may impact your shots point of impact.

RANGE. AIM. KILL. EXACT AIMING. ANY DISTANCE. THE FIRST CROSSBOW WITH A BUILT-IN RANGEFINDING SCOPE

Fully assembled, the crossbow weighs just 8-pounds (w/o accessories), measures only 31-inches (w/o stirrup) in length and shoots up to a supercharged 470 feet-per-second.

The package includes:

ACUslide™ cocking and de-cocking system Garmin XERO X1i™ Rangefinding Scope TenPoint Narrow Soft Crossbow Case 6-pack of EVO-X Lighted CenterPunch™ Premium Carbon Crossbow Arrows (.001” straightness) 6-pack of EVO-X CenterPunch™ Premium Carbon Crossbow Arrows (.001” straightness) 3-pack of EVO-X CenterPunch™ Rear-Deploying Broadheads Sling Integrated String Stop System 6-arrow Tech Quiver

NEW STRIKER VIVID FISHFINDERS OFFER GARMIN’S MOST VIBRANT UNDERWATER IMAGES TO DATE

T he choice is yours : S even new color palettes make it easier for anglers to distinguish fish and structure Garmin® International, Inc., the world’s leading marine electronicsmanufacturer, today introduced the STRIKER™ Vivid series – proven fishfinders with best-in-class sonar now with seven new high- contrast color palettes that make it easier to see what’s beneath the surface. “Vivid brings an enhanced sonar experience to the STRIKER series,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice president of global consumer sales. “There are a lot of variables to consider when choosing a sonar color palette – daylight, bottomcomposition, cover, even eyesight – and we’re excited to bring more choices in vivid colors to these popular fishfinders so anglers can have more success on the water.” CHIRP traditional sonar and CHIRP ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonar technology, STRIKER Vivid ensures that anglers see crystal-clear fish arches and remarkable target separation. With seven new vivid color options added, Garmin offers a choice of 16 palettes, making it easier to distinguish fish from structure based on the user’s preferences and fishing conditions. The Vivid series comes with a built-in high- sensitivity GPS receiver, so not only can anglers see fish and structure below the boat, but they can also quickly mark favorite fishing spots and other areas of interest like brush piles, stumps, or docks, and get back to them. Built-in GPS also allows users to plan and create routes and view their boat’s speed. STRIKER Vivid anglers can create their own HD fishingmaps thanks to built-inQuickdrawContours mapping software. Whether it’s a familiar spot or uncharted water, the feature makes it’s easy to create and store up to 2 million acres of maps Featuring industry-leading Garmin

with 1-foot contours. Once it’s turned on, users will see contours with labels generated right on the screen as the boat moves – no need to stop fishing; results appear instantly on the STRIKER Vivid screen. User-collected data can be easily shared or accessed with others through the Garmin Quickdraw™ Community, which now includes over 9 million acres of data. Thanks to built-in Wi-Fi®, STRIKER Vivid users can connect to the free ActiveCaptain® app to transfer waypointsandreceivesmartnotificationsdelivered right to the screen, including software update notifications for the latest feature improvements3. Available with a 4-, 5-, 7- or 9-inch color display, the STRIKER Vivid series has a rugged design and keyed interface that’s built to withstand the harsh marine environment.

DIRECTIONS: 1. Mix the marinade ingredients together and rub it into the leg of lamb. 2. Use a baster to get the marinade into the cavities, but don’t cut the string holding the roast together. 3. Place the lamb in a gallon size ziplock bag, or equivalent, pour in the rest of the marinade and throw it in the fridge at least overnight. 4. The next day, preheat the smoker to about 200 degrees, and put in 2 hours of pecan and 1 hour of apple bisquittes. 5. Take the lamb out of the bag and put it, with the marinade particles still stuck to it, into the smoker. 7. Note: Put a round metal cake pan under the lamb to catch drippings for gravy, and it works like a charm. 8. Put the lamb on the second rack space from the top, and put the pan 2 rack spaces down. The flow of the smoke did not seem to be affected in the least. 9. When the temp hits 140 degrees, take the lamb out and dutifully wrap it in foil, then a towel, and put it in a cooler. 10. Take the drippings from the pan in the smoker and put them in a saucepan. 11. Add chopped onions, cook until they are soft, add a bit of milk with corn starch in it to make a gravy. 6. Smoke the lamb until the internal temp is 140 degrees (about 3 – 3 1/2 hours).
