Our latest issue is on its way to subscribers’ homes. The May/June 2017 issue has something for everyone—classic hunts by Jack O’Connor, Saxton Pope, and Arthur Young; bowhunting for turkeys with traditional tackle; dogsledding across the frozen Arctic after polar bears and musk oxen; a near-deadly duck hunt; monster fish (figuratively and literally); falconry. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
The new issue is mailing to subscribers now and will be on newsstands May 1. Not already a subscriber? Sign up today to get eight great issues delivered directly to your door, or subscribe digitally to get the new issue instantly!
