To most of our readers, we're just the guys behind the pictures, telling bowhunting tales and trying to share some of our knowledge with you in the pages of this magazine as we try to keep on top of trends and breakthroughs in archery equipment and techniques for shooting and hunting. We think we do a pretty fair job, but we're always looking for better ways to keep you abreast of the latest gear, hunting tips and tactics.

To that end, we are happy to announce our latest offering: Petersen's BOWHUNTING Radio, and it's free for the listening, right off our website: www.bowhuntingmag.com.

Now you can hear timely bowhunting tips, great live interviews with your favorite bowhunting personalities and hot topics as they happen. Just click on our Petersen's BOWHUNTING Radio icons from the comfort of your desk and hear bowhunting experts and opinion makers as they tell you the best ways to fill your tag, tune your bow and shoot smaller groups and give you an insider's perspective on today's most topical and controversial bowhunting issues.

Brought to you by the editors of Petersen's BOWHUNTING and hosted by Yours Truly, these live interviews are guaranteed to inform and entertain, and you can hear new interviews regularly just by stopping by the website.

BOWHUNTING field editor Bill Winke was kind enough to get the ball rolling as our first-ever interviewee, discussing hunting the whitetail rut. You can also expect to hear such BOWHUNTING notables as Jim Dougherty, Randy Ulmer, Patrick Meitin and Dave Dolbee and other bowhunting personalities such as Chuck Adams, Ted Nugent and Myles Keller as well as interviews with newsmakers and experts on everything from the top whitetail biologists around the country to the players behind the scenes in some of the political issues bound to affect your future bowhunting opportunities. Take for example the controversial issues surrounding the recent court action in Arizona forcing the state to issue more non-resident tags. What will the impact of such a decision have in Arizona, and your state? Find out when we interview the players on Petersen's BOWHUNTING Radio.

While I'm laying out just a little bit of what's going on at the magazine, I'd like to welcome BOWHUNTING's new associate editor Dan Beraldo to the fold. Dan came to us from Oregon, and brings a youthful zest to our ranks. Welcome, Dan! We're sure all our readers will enjoy Dan's enthusiasm and passion for the Petersen tradition of bowhunting.

Congratulations to Dave Dolbee, our new executive editor! You recognize Dave as our faithful associate editor for the past five years. Dave's earned this new title that recognizes his years of service and importance to our future goals. I'm counting on Dave to continue to help deliver more of the same great content our readers have come to expect. Well done, Dave!

And me, well I'm hoping that with a couple of great guys like Dave and Dan around, I'll be able to do at least a little more bowhunting. I know that with their help, we can deliver a magazine that lives up to its reputation as the absolute authority on equipment, technique and hunting that it always has been, with even more innovative offerings like Petersen's BOWHUNTING Radio, and much more! After all, we not only write about the greatest pursuit on earth, we live it! We hope it shows.
