Ranch Rifle Redux
|
The ideal coyote rifle? How about an accurate, easy-carrying carbine that shoulders quickly? Song dogs don’t always give you a standing shot, so a rifle that delivers fast follow-up shots would be great.
When Ruger’s Mini-14 came along, I thought ...

Stop That Deer!
|
How many times have you watched a hunting show and have seen this scenario? A deer approaches a hunter, usually a bowhunter, and the shot is made as soon as the deer is in range, yet it is still walking.

Of all the whitetail's keen senses, the hardest to fool is its nose. Most archers get off the ground to increase their odds of success, but not Canton, Ill., bowhunter Ed Kruzan.

Recently, while cleaning out my hunting closet, I found my journal from a black bear camp. It's dated May 1997. The memories of Saskatchewan came flooding back when I opened the first page.
