Here’s the thing – they usually ain’t that far away, and the majority of guns in the hunting woods these days shoot flat enough that they’ll reach way on out there and still hit within the kill zone. Read on to learn more…

You could say that this rifle was born in the 1800s, but that doesn’t mean it’s outdated or that it can’t keep up with any modern 22 rifle. On the contrary – in many ways it’s superior to some of its modern counterparts. While this particular gun has been “rode hard and put away wet,” it’s still very functional and dependable, and can be easily taken down to a short length if you need to conserve space. Check it out – the 62A is a nice old rifle that deserves respect and admiration.

Whether you got your truck stuck or nailed your first (or biggest) deer or something else, please tell us about your most memorable hunt – the one that sticks out in your mind more than any other.

Last season, I had an experience that was unique for me: I went hunting based on game camera photos – and I brought home one of the bucks that was in the photos! The best part is that this was the only buck of the bunch that we had decided was a “shooter.” I love it when that happens! Game cameras can help your hunting, for sure.

This question is a no-brainer for me, mainly because I’ve known the answer since I was a kid and Dad educated me on the Colt 1917 Army revolver. But I found out through some online research that there’s a lot of very bad – and extremely dangerous – misinformation out there, so it’s high time someone set the record straight.

It’s now been almost four years since my father passed away, and it is still mighty rough sometimes. He and I hunted together every year since I was about 9 years old, so as you can imagine, 2008 was a rough year for me. Losing him, then facing my first hunting season without him, led to some of my darkest days. Thankfully, they were interspersed with some good and very bright moments, as the kindness of friends gave me ample opportunities to share their company and to hunt and take deer.

I enjoyed putting this little GPS unit through its paces for this review. It’s got some handy features, but it also has some aggravating quirks. Check out the review and see what you think – and if you’ve tried this yourself, feel free to add your own review of it. Enjoy!
