A little rain never stopped a dedicated waterfowl hunter, nor did it dampen the enthusiasm of those attending the 39th Annual Waterfowl Festival in Easton, Md.
The American Kennel Club (AKC) has released its annuallist of "the most popular purebred dogs in America." As expected, for the 19th consecutive year the Labrador retriever tops the list.
For most big game hunters, the chance to square your sights on a 400-inch elk is an once-in-a-lifetime thrill. Every time an elk hunter sends a bugle echoing through the hills he's hoping to get closer to the ultimate Wapiti record breaker. To help all you bone collectors get pumped up for this season, we've compiled eight examples of Boone & Crockett elk. Enjoy. (photos: Boone & Crockett Club)
