Bold Bear Cub Nearly Joins Hunters in Their Treestand
Two hunters trying to film a hunt found themselves up a tree with a black bear cub who was just as surprised as they were. When black bears vie for territory, or especially food, they can be as aggressive as they are dangerous. Luckily for these two hunting companions, they were already up in the

This Compound Bow Dry Firing Test is Like Archery Torture
Dry firing any bow is a sure way to destroy it. There are a few things you certainly never do with any bow. Why is Hoyt dry firing bows 1,500 times? This dry firing torture test is downright cringeworthy. Watch the video below: The Hoyt Standard. The cringe-worthy behind-the-scenes look at the 1,500 dry-fire riser test that

Shooting a Gigantic 4 Bore Shotgun in Slow Motion
The 4 bore is one of the largest shoulder-fired guns ever made. Here in the United States, we love our big guns. We love our rifles chambered in .50 BMG, our handguns chambered in .500 S&W and more. In the states, we generally do not think our friends across the pond in Europe are into

Man’s Custom Caboose Camper Looks Just Like the Real Deal
This caboose camper is one of the coolest custom builds we have ever seen. When it comes to Americana, the caboose is a prime example. Once used to house railroad workers who had to monitor the load and perform various tasks at the rear of the train, they are not used as widely today. However,

Kerber: Dual Dream
Former No. 1 states two tennis dreams.
Coronavirus crisis has shut down the sport and provided players time to ponder tennis dreams.
Angelique Kerber shared dual dreams: win Roland Garros to complete the career Grand Slam and partner Alexander Zverev in mixed doubles at the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games.

The former world No. 1 told German Sky Sport winning "Paris would be a dream." Kerber is a two-time French Open quarterfinalist.
The 2018 Wimbledon winner, who won the Australian Open and US Open in 2016, did not reveal when and where she plans to launch her return to tournament tennis.
The 32-year-old Kerber said she wants to play both singles and mixed doubles "with Sascha Zverev" at the Tokyo Games.
Kerber and Zverev previously partnered at the Hopman Cup leading Germany to successive finals in 2018 and 2019 where they fell to the Swiss squad of Roger Federer and Belinda Bencic.

Matic: Don’t Blame Djokovic
"[Serbia] allowed everyone to do whatever they want," Manchester United soccer star says.
Serbian soccer star Nemanja Matić is defending compatriot Novak Djokovic in the aftermath of his Adria Tour debacle.
The Adria Tour, which launched in Djokovic's native Belgrade, featured high-fives and hugs between players and little social distancing or masks among fans.
Watch: Tsitsipas Sings for His Supper
Several players, including Djokovic, Grigor Dimitrov, Borna Coric and Viktor Troicki, contracted coronavirus after playing the Adria Tour.
While Djokovic, an organizing force behind the tour, has taken the brunt of the backlash against reckless behavior on the Tour, Matić says the Serbian government opened up the country and gave the world No. 1 approval to host the Adria Tour.
"People need to understand that the situation in Serbia was better than here," Matić, who plays for Manchester United, told Sky Sports. "The country allowed everyone to do whatever they want, everything was open, the shopping centres and the restaurants.
"So they started to live normal lives because our country was closed for three months completely. You were not allowed to walk on the street, you couldn't leave your home, so it was different than [England].
"But when they opened they said 'you are more than free to do whatever you want'. Before that tournament, there was a game with 20,000 people and nobody said anything about that."

Watch: Tsitsipas Sings for His Supper at UTS
The Greek is making hits on and off the court. Not only is Stefanos Tsitsipas excelling on the court at the Ultimate Tennis Showdown in the South of France, the World No.6 is also polishing up his singing chops.
One of the fun parts of the UTS format is the changeover interviews after every quarter. That means fans get at least four minutes of Tsitsipas, live and unscripted, and sometimes the results can be quite hilarious. Here The Greek tells commentators Pete Odgers and Jenny Drummond that he’s going to sing some Justin Timberlake—never mind that he actually sings Timbaland.
There was also plenty of excellent tennis from Tsitsipas. He’s now 5-1 and in first place after three weeks of tennis in the South of France. There are two more weeks to play.
He was everywhere at once today 🙌
