It's no secret elk love to hide in places few humans wish to venture. But those are exactly the kinds of spots you should hunt—and they can be found by focusing on these five terrain features.
Dubbed as the first “blind without a blind spot,” the new Primos Double Bull SurroundView blind utilizes a see-through fabric to allow complete visual awareness without the need to open windows.
A bull elk weighs 700 pounds and doesn’t easily surrender its spirit. Mud-caked hide, massive bones, second-to-none cardiovascular efficiency and mountainous terrain make these beasts extremely tough to recover if not hit perfectly. So bowhunters should only attempt ideal shots.
For a first time handgun hunter, a little practice paid off. NRA Publications Editorial Director John Zent invited Senior Digital Producer Tom Rickwalder to the range to test fire the Taurus Raging Bull in 44 Mag. After a little work, they both decided Rickwalder was ready to go on his first handgun hunt. Turkeys and whitetail would serve as his targets in Virginia. Get an inside look at the hunt with this gallery.
Taurus has long been a name that's synonymous with the revolver—with models like the company's Tracker and Raging Bull in particular striking a cord with hunters. But there's a lot more to say about the company's 70-plus years of history.
