Happy to share that I’ve accepted a new role on the Development Advisory Committee (DAC) of the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District.
As many of you know, I grew up in the heart of the Muskingum Watershed and it feels great to be returning to my outdoor roots with an opportunity to shape public access and usage of the 41,000 acres of land and 16,000 acres of water surface at 10 lakes.
As a member of the DAC I hope to share my decades of experience afield with the Board and staff, advising them on public access, recreation, conservation and community involvement across the MWCD. There ..read more

The CZ Wingshooter Elite is the highest grade field double from CZ. This shotgun action and function is very similar to the CZ Drake and the CZ Redhead, but the aesthetic is a fairly big departure from those models.

We’ll be testing this shotgun over the next few weeks on the back 40 to see how we like shooting it.

Part of the challenge of getting young people started in upland hunting is finding a shotgun they are able to safely carry for walks afield. Sawyer is 8 years old and 60 lbs soaking wet, and though he’s had some success with this shotgun from a rest, we can immediately see the challenges when the rest is removed. It’s a balancing act: if the gun is too light you risk excessive recoil, too heavy and young arms cannot effectively swing.
This Mossberg Bantam is listed at 5 lbs (though I suspect it’s a bit heavier). The length of pull is adjustable with included spacers.
We’ll keep testing other y ..read more

The CZ Redhead Premier is the mid-tier field double from CZ. It offers reliability with a matte silver receiver and jeweled action. More intricate scrollwork engraving than its cousin the CZ Drake. We’ll be testing this shotgun over the next few weeks on the back 40 to see how we like shooting it.
