Handguns, Air Guns and .22s

I have three sons. My 15-year-old middle son, Trevor, is a competitive shooter with a handgun. My oldest son is 17. He loves to shoot, but he really doesn’t have the competition bug to compete. My youngest son is nine, and he likes to shoot everything. He shoots his bow, his .22, and his pellet gun. My sons are heavily involved in shooting and the outdoors. They really love all of it.

Handguns, Crossbows and Hogs - Here’s Why

I think the greatest advantage of the crossbow is that it also allows young hunters to start hunting at an earlier age. In some states, the minimum draw weight for a longbow is just too heavy for a 10-12-year-old youngster to pull, hold and aim accurately. But the crossbow gives them an opportunity to get in close, to aim accurately, and to find the spot they want to hit. It makes that shot achievable for

Hunting Prairie Dogs at 400 Yards and Whitetails at over 200 Yards with a Handgun

I really enjoy hunting with a pistol and have taken a good number of whitetails with it, as well as bears, elk and mule deer. I've also taken small game with my pistol, including prairie dogs. One of my longest handgun shots I ever made was with a Savage Striker pistol. I took a prairie dog at 400 yards with a .22-250, using Hornady ammunition. My longest big-game shot with a handgun was a whitetail

Doug Koenig: A Man for All Seasons

I’m often asked, “Doug, how did you get into competitive shooting?” Twenty-seven years ago my father and I decided to buy a handgun, so we went to a local gun shop that did custom work on all types of guns. Several of the people there shot competitively. These folks invited me to come to a local shooting match. After that first competitive shooting match, I was hooked on competitive shooting.

Summer Slump: Practice Makes Perfect

I try to shoot my bow throughout the year, including the hot summer months of July and August. When the summer months arrive, I try to spend 4 or 5 days a week practicing with my bow. This practice gives me plenty of time to be at the top of my game when bow season arrives during the middle of September.

Patrick Flanigan - A Professional Exhibition Shooter by Trade and a Passionate Hunter

I try to schedule my shows, so that I have the most free time during waterfowl season and upland bird season, because I have a real passion for wing shooting. Wing shooting is the way I’ve grown up, the way I’ve learned to shoot, and it reconnects me with my family and my heritage. Although my passion is hunting anything that flies, I also enjoy deer hunting. As well as loving wing shooting, I'm a
