A couple of weeks ago one of my many fishing contacts suggested that there are a lot of misconceptions about the spawn period for our big three catfish species, blue, channel and flathead.  He thought that might be a good topic for a blog post and I agree with him! Our large catfish species in …

Winchester Deer Season XP Ammo

The Winchester Deer Season XP is the company’s first line of ammo specifically designed for hunting deer. While there’s no shortage of centerfire rifle ammunition that’ll dependably kill deer, the folks at Winchester saw some room for improvement. Several years ago, popular deer hunting ammo like Remington Core-Lokt and Winchester’s own Super-X Power Point essentially owned the

Beka Garris’ gar guards are bad to the bow.  If you’ve ever shot a bow, you’re probably familiar with the pain that often follows that pesky string making contact with tender skin. To alleviate this issue, you can wear an archery arm guard to protect flesh when shooting. Although the market is ripe with plenty

Shotgun Games

Shotgun Games

Its likely the sound of firecrackers and pyrotechnics at this time of year that gets me thinking about the upcoming hunting seasons.  In particular, I have a desire to dust off the ol’shotgun and break some bluerock.  It never hurts that each year I spend a few days in late June as a shotgun referee …

Boris Becker Believes former Protégé Djokovic Can Win at SW19 This Year

Boris Becker Believes former Protégé Djokovic Can Win at SW19 This Year

The former coach of Djokovic says he has been impressed by the Serb's progress this summer.
Wimbledon, EnglandBoris Becker has joined Andy Murray in the Novak Djokovic fan club. Yesterday on BBC Murray commented about Djokovic's good chances of winning here at SW19 despite the hot play of Federer and Nadal. On Wednesdsay the German, who helped guide Djokovic to six of his 12 Grand Slam titles during a three-year coaching stint, penned a column for Fox Sports expressing the same sentiment — he believes Djokovic is in good enough form to win Wimbledon.

“The fact that Murray is out now, and Novak was gone, also is responsible for how Roger has won so much over the past 18 months,” Becker wrote. “Remember, when they started the Australian Open last year, No. 1 in the world was Novak; No. 2 in the world was Andy. Roger was nowhere, coming back from injury. So, in 18 months, a lot has happened for both players. A lot can happen in 18 months for Novak.”

Becker says that he began to see the difference in Djokovic when he reunited with Marian Vajda, and as the spring has turned to summer he has seen more signs that the former World No.1 is ready to break out in a big way.


“When I saw him in Rome, he started playing better,” Becker said. “I saw the semi-final against Rafa. It was the first time I felt as if he was starting to be competitive again. He had a little bit of a flunk at the French, losing to Cecchinato. But again, he made the second week, and finally when I saw him at Queen’s, I said ‘wow, he’s playing tennis again.’”

Becker believes that Djokovic, who faces Kei Nishikori today and would face either Rafael Nadal or Juan Martin del Potro in the semifinals on Friday, can win it all for the fourth time at SW19.

“I don’t see why Novak can’t win this tournament,” he wrote. “He has to put himself in the position for him to win in straight sets against Kei Nishikori. He’s also a bit older, and needs the day off to recover.”

He added: “Nishikori is not a bad draw for him. He likes playing Nishikori. Then he’s in the semis, potentially against Rafa, or del Potro. A great matchup. They’re the matches he’s looking for. I think he can go all the way.”
