Where's Tim Now?

Well fans, we are back on the television and we are out in the field to bring you some new and exciting action. I had an awesome hunt in New Zealand this past year and have many exciting hunts planned for 2008.

July 2007, WHG’s first bow fishing tournament.

In the heat of the summer we hit the waterways and shoot fish. If you have not heard about or saw footage of the central Illinois flying carp you need to check it out on our web page. These fish are amazing and are a blast to shoot. Just keep your head down. Kevin Wheelright, Rich Pletz and I hit the waters of the Illinois River with 18 other teams in search of ,,,you guessed it CARP. Smelly, slimy, bloody,,,did I say slimy fish.

We shot 112 fish out of the air and had another 30 to 40 jump in the boat. At times we had 30 to 40 fish in the air at once. It was an incredible site. Our count was good for forth place. Our largest fish was a little over 22 lbs. My thanks to Ed with the Bowfishing Association of Illinois and all the shooters who gave us advice. Watch upcoming episodes of Relentless Pursuit for some exciting flying fish action.  

OUTDOORS - Jeff Lampe Peoria Journal Star
Tuesday, September 25, 2007


Tim Wells has been in iffy situations before. There was that time he charged a grizzly with a bow and shot the bear in the skull, only later pondering what might have happened had he missed. There was the time he almost suffered hypothermia while hunting wolves in Canada. But last week's experience in South Dakota is one Canton tele-hunter Wells calls "the closest I've come to death while hunting." An accomplished bowhunter who has compiled numerous hunting videos and is host of a television show, Wells has a passion for spearhunting. "I like the challenge," he said. He survived one of his more unusual challenges earlier this month in the grasslands of South Dakota. "I always wanted to do a spear hunt for buffalo on the (Great) Plains. At first I envisioned doing it on a horse," Wells said. "But nobody wanted to let me use their horse, because they thought their horse might get killed." Instead, Wells first tried to crawl close to a bison, mimicking a method used by Native Americans. Wells learned bison are not as dumb as he first thought. While Wells crawled within two yards of a big bull, the animal fled when he made a move to stand and throw his Cold Steel Samburu spear. After that, Wells decided to try another "old-school" approach. Years ago, when bison still roamed the plains, Native Americans chased herds past hunters who would throw spears or shoot arrows at the stampeding animals. For some reason, that appealed to Wells. Then Yeske got the herd moving in Tim Wells' direction. "I thought they would come single file," Wells said. "All the sudden, I looked over this ridge and here came 100 buffalo running full tilt right at me, running about 20 yards wide. I'm thinking, 'What the heck have I done?' You could hear their hooves. It was like something from the movies." Then a big 1,600-pound brute came right at him. "As he came, he veered a little bit to the right and I made the throw and stuck him good," 

Florida Axis and Hogs 2007

Our Florida hunt was awesome. We hunted the Brady Ranch which is the largest axis deer ranch in the world. We saw herds of axis daily,,,some upwards of 200 animals. The hogs were running around like,,,hogs. They are everywhere. I hunted from the ground and from tree stands. These animals are just as elusive as a whitetail. I finally double lunged a nice axis that made it to the swamp before expiring. When we found the animal someone else was trying to claim it. A nine foot gator didn’t want to give up his all he could eat buffet. I finally had a length conversation with the gator, being a hunter himself, he finally agreed that the kill belonged to me. We ended up our hunt with some nice axis and four hogs.  

Mathews Annual Pro Shooter and Media Outing

I am so blessed to be a member of the Mathews family and I do mean family. This is one company that is truly family oriented. That is one thing that has drawn me to them and kept me here (the equipment is top notch to). I was told that little old me had been sponsored by Mathews longer then anyone else in the industry. What an honor! Mathews and I have been committed to producing the best bow hunting in the industry. Their media event was outstanding. I would guess they had between 800 and a 1000 pro shooters and media people their. In appreciation for everyone’s hard work Mathews gave away a new truck and several ATVs.  I got to launch some arrows with some of the best shooters in the world. I think I will stick to the hunting. These people are amazing. I aim for the heart and they aim for the little vein in the left ventricle. One reason for the gathering was to shoot the new Mathews commercials. Watch your favorite show. I finally made it on a commercial after ten years. I can’t wit till 2008. Mathews may have a surprise up its sleeve.
