Bullpups seem to get short shrift with American shooting sports enthusiasts, which is interesting, considering the features they have to offer. Bullpups are among the most compact semi-automatic carbines available. Models such as the IWI X95, Springfield Hellion, Steyr AUG A3 M1 and the Desert Tech WLVRN commonly sport an overall length between 26″ to 28″ with carbine-length barrels. This is possible because the action has been moved back behind the trigger instead of above the trigger like most carbines in this class. The bullpup configuration shifts much of the gun’s weight back near the shoulder. This, in turn, can…
Bowhunting requires more than just a good eye and a steady hand—it demands a body that can move well, stay strong, and recover fast. One of the most overlooked aspects of that equation is shoulder health, especially before and after shooting your bow.We’ve all heard it before: “You won’t get time to warm up in the field.” That’s true. But the better question is: Why warm up for anything? Whether you’re stepping up to the bar or drawing back a bow, you’re asking a lot from your body. And if we’re not preparing it properly, especially those shoulders, you’re walking…
It was one of those, just-soak-it-up moments in the outdoors. The mid-morning sun lit up the winter wheat field in front of me, and next to my jake decoy, I could see the feathers of a real jake blowing in the gathering breeze. Aesthetically, it was beautiful, and what made it even better was the nearly nonstop calling of a male bobwhite quail looking for a girlfriend.That sound, which used to be far more prevalent throughout much of the South, is a rare treat these days. Yet, it’s not as rare as a lot of upland hunters would like to…

This did not happen by chance.” – Isaac Newton The post The Editors’ Quote of the Day appeared first on SurvivalBlog.com. Read the full article here
00:00:00 Speaker 1: Thoughts are what you hear, but thoughts have no instruction. Thoughts have no strategy. Thoughts cannot solve a problem intent, right, So it’s thinking is what you say. Thoughts are what you hear. Thinking is what you say. It’s your voice and it’s got to be the loudest one in the room. So you can imagine when a big bull’s coming and you’re like, oh my god, that thing’s giant. Right, Well, that’s a thought that has no instruction, that has no strategy to it. But you also can’t necessarily control that thought because it’s coming in…
This is purely my opinion and may be of no use to you. My “tone” is sarcastic and rude and confident on purpose. I am not that kind of person, but there are certain topics, such as Artificial Intelligence, that rub me the wrong way. Maybe I am, or used to be, smarter than most. Maybe the opposite is true. In any case, I seek to put A.I. in its place, in a box, lock it in there, sit on the lid, and laugh. It is always going to be true that human beings are flawed (original sin, if you…

00:00:02 Speaker 1: Hey, everyone, Welcome to the Foundation’s podcast. I’m your host, Tony Peterson, and today’s episode is all about how we think about our dogs and our dog breeds and why that can get us into trouble. Look, humans are goofy in a lot of ways. For example, my Instagram feed is full of a few things. Fish just clabbering topwater lures all over the world, dogs while doing dog stuff, which should come as no surprise to anyone, And a hell of a lot of people getting injured while attempting to rope, swing over lakes, or parkour…
