“public access”

Mature bucks are different, but the places they look for on public land can be found.

National award hails Reece’s 40-year track record of fighting for sportsmen’s access to public lands.

Hats off to Susan Recce, Director of NRA-ILA’s Conservation, Wildlife and Natural Resources Division, as she is honored for a 40-year career fighting for sportsmen’s access to public lands.

Sportsmen have willingly paid excise taxes on guns, ammo, fishing tackle and gear for decades knowing the money is earmarked for conserving and protecting America's natural resources.

Need a place to hunt? Don’t overlook the increasing number of states now offering private-land-access programs for hunters.

Even though hunters are the marrying type, they often spar with their spouses each autumn about their time away from home.

On the wide-open Western plains pronghorn antelope, the second-fastest land animals on Earth, use distance as a buffer from danger. It’s wise to admit a truck is best used to locate herds. But reality is boots will need to hit the ground to close the deal.

Given the advantages of the open country they live in and the vast public lands they occupy, pronghorn are perfect quarry for new hunters or those who want a fascinating hunting experience.

Gaining access to private property, especially in hunter-dense areas, can be challenging, expensive or both. But thanks to a new e-commerce initiative, hunters may find private land more accessible than previously imagined.
