“Tag: Scott Olmsted”

Deer season is right around the corner, and if you're like many off-season hunters, you're long overdue for a tune-up at the range.

Get a closer look at the recently unveiled Wby X line from Weatherby.

Armed with Kimber rifles, American Hunter Editor-in-Chief Scott Olmsted and his girlfriend journeyed to South Africa for a Plains-game hunt of a lifetime, taking Impala, Kudu, Cape Eland and more. The pair also captured images of the unique flora and fauna scattered across the South African countryside, which they share in this photo gallery.

Think the national news media reports the truth? Think again. For weeks now, gun-control advocates have claimed data they have collected indicate a majority of NRA members support an assault-weapon ban.

In 1759, before the Declaration of Independence was conceived of, and before the American Revolution began, Benjamin Franklin made what would seem to be an obvious observation: “Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.”

Across all media these days the information is far from accurate when it comes to the culture war waged against gun owners.

For a guy who just up and decided to carve a niche in the hunting business he did a heckuva job. Greg Rodriguez, “G-Rod” to those who knew him well, was a mortgage broker when an African safari in the 1990s altered his course.

NRA E-Media's Tom Rickwalder captured these images while he and American Hunter Editor-in-Chief Scott Olmsted hunted game in Africa's Caprivi Strip. From crocs and wildebeest to hippos and elephants, the Kimber Caprivi and Mountain Ascent have helped to get the job done.
