Setting Up A Rifle For An Elk Hunt
If a hunter isn’t comfortable with his setup, the hunt is much less likely to succeed. Here’s how to pick the right tool for your next elk hunt.
Shockey Trigger Stick Review: Solid, Functional and Adaptable
While generally skeptical of celebrity-endorsed products, I’ve used the sticks on two hunts now, and they’re versatile and well-made.
Elk Mouth Diaphragms – Choosing the Right One
Choosing the right mouth diaphragm is a daunting task, just as important as choosing the right boots or best arrow. Here are a few things to consider.
Savage 10 GRS 6.5 Creedmoor – Push Button Easy
This week, we got a chance to look at a Savage 10 GRS, which boasts a Berserk stock, suppressor-ready barrel and runs off Magpul AICS style magazines.
First Deer of the Year
On August 11 a friend of mine from back East texted me and I responded that I was deer hunting. “Boddington,” he came back, “it’s August…around here we call that poaching!” On the surface, it seems crazy. Here on the Central Coast, August temperatures soar above 100 degrees and wildfires are headline news. Even so, it’s deer season! The “coast zone” rifle deer season opens the second Saturday in August. This year opening day was the 11th; it could open as early as August 8…but never later than the 14th. This is the earliest rifle deer season in the Lower 48!

Is it a short jaunt in the dark to a treestand? A hurried march after work into camp? A slow, methodical still- hunt to a rendezvous with a hunting partner?
Alaskan Bear Rifles
I love to look at Professional Hunter’s firearms; they show the rigors of day-to-day hunting life and are often beat nearly to death. While we all have our safe queens, I appreciate those beat up, well-hunted guns that invariably have a story to tell, be it that one shot that even surprised the owner, of those hair-raising tales of dangerous game at close quarters.

I have had some people ask me about my preferred setup for terminating whistle pigs, so today I am going to discuss just that.
