Lever actions are often presumed inaccurate or not precise enough for long-range shooting. But what defines “enough” accuracy or “long-range” shooting?

If we simply rise to shoot without thinking about the alignment of our feet we may never have a chance as our body movement is blocked right and we cannot swing to the right as far as needed. 

I like ground meats, but I prefer food made from the whole meat. This smoked elk pastrami is an excellent way to use the tough meat from the shoulder and create food you can take to work or on your next hunt on a sandwich.

If we want to get right down to it, the truth is that baiting is any form of purposefully placed food designed to draw in animals. That means a feeder full of corn, a salt lick, a pile of apples, and a carefully planted food plot could all be considered baiting.

We’d been hunting for many days in backcountry territory where we had success in years past. We saw no deer and finally decided to pull up stakes and move to a different area.

My first experience with hardcast handgun bullets on medium game left me disappointed. I double-lunged a pronghorn with a .512 caliber 465gr. WFN bullet and had to shoot it three more times.

Whether you’re hitting the fields for dove season right now or trying to decide if you want to add a hunting season to your whitetail habit, we’re here to help.

Flying to hunt can be intimidating, but if you know what to expect and how to handle hiccups, you won’t have to pull out the anti-anxiety medication. 

My kids love heart, and they talk about eating it all year. It’s too bad elk (or deer, or bears) only have one. Fried elk heart is a great way to enjoy it.
