When you bring home a bunch of fish, canning smoked trout is a great storage option.

This 50-caliber muzzleloader is often the first choice for those looking to get into traditional black powder. Let’s get back to the basics as I spend some time with the Traditions Kentucky Rifle.

It was a month before Christmas of 2021 and I was out looking for a rifle and ammo to go with it.  I’m sure most of you can recall that was not the best of times for firearm shopping and ammo was even worse. 

I wanted to go DIY, and after extensive research, I decided to travel to southeast Alaska early in the season and climb to the alpine country with a bivy camp on my back. It would be a lot of work, but I could do things my way and on my schedule.

Every year, I eagerly dive into the world of flagship compound bows, testing and tinkering with numerous models. It’s not just a job for me, it’s a passion that I’m fortunate to have.

It took me a few years to warm up to the 300 BLK cartridge after SAAMI blessed the round in 2011. The 300 BLK has been around for a lot longer.

I don’t love cooked mushrooms. Having said that, I love cooked morels. I’ll show you how I drizzle morel mushrooms over bear backstraps. Morels make you look like a great cook.

Tall brush dictated a standing shot, so I rested the forend of the American Gen 2, chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, on shooting sticks.

In a time when content is king and new gun announcements come fast, the opportunity rarely arises to do a truly long-term gun review. One where you can get to know it, shoot it a lot, knock it around. I wanted to figure out what does and doesn’t work, set aside any marketing hype, and live with the gun.
