A good teacher does not have to tell others they are good at what they do; it is reflected in their students' test scores, performance, and their overall grasp of the subject matter. A good teacher's student leaves the course with a marked improvement in the subject matter compared to that of when they first entered class. This concept applies to all teachers and instructors. This includes firearms training instructors. Read More

Good shooting isn't just about what happens before and while you squeeze the trigger. What happens after the trigger squeeze matters, too, and you've heard this referred to as follow-through. A solid follow-through is important in any kind of rifle shooting and even matters to pistol shooters to an extent, but where it really becomes vital is in long-range precision rifle shooting. A poor or non-existent follow-through will have a greater and greater effect on point-of-impact the farther you are shooting. Read More

When your name is an answer—or question—on Jeopardy!, you know you've made it into the American lexicon. That happened to Marion P. Hammer in the mid-1990s after she became the National Rifle Association's first woman president. And while many across the country learned her name for the first time on the iconic game show, NRA members have long known her as one of the Second Amendment's staunchest defenders. Read More

First of all, know that this is a fear every single new concealed carrier has, but it's something that almost never happens. Trust me when I tell you that people just aren't paying that much attention to you, and even if someone does notice, normal folks will have the social dignity not to ask. Read More

So you've shot a deer or other big-game animal and you've either followed the blood trail until it ran out, or you haven't found much of a trail to begin with. I know how frustrating this can be, especially if you know you made a pretty good shot, but don't give up hope. Here's what to do when the blood runs out. Read More

In my book, pronghorn are one of the coolest animals on the planet. They're an iconic symbol of the West, they're uniquely American, and they're absolutely delicious when properly cared for. They're also a ton of fun to hunt, but if you're new to pronghorn hunting, you might have noticed that a really big pronghorn doesn't look a whole lot different from an average or even a smallish pronghorn.

Dove season—even if you don't hunt them—puts a smile on the face of all hunters. That's because dove season represents the unofficial start of the hunting season—and the official countdown to all the other hunting. Read More
