This Gun Shoots Triangle Bullets from a Triangle Barrel
Jordan Sillars
Sep 21, 2023
Whether used for war, self-defense, or hunting, guns that can stuff more cartridges into less space offer their users an advantage. That’s why Sig Sauer’s “high-capacity micro handgun,” the P365, was such a sensation when it dropped in 2017 and why other gun companies wasted no time mimicking their...

Bear Grease Brownies
(0)
Wade Truong
Sep 22, 2023
Bear grease is a versatile fat—you can use it for everything from sauteés to confits, and apparently, you can also forecast the weather with it. In addition to its savory and meteorological applications, it makes a mean batch of brownies. Bear grease is somewhat liquid at room temperature, so it can...

Why You Should Hang Game Cameras Post-Harvest
Mike McTee
Sep 22, 2023
The black bear’s nose follows the elk’s vertebrae, carving through a fog of flies. Its jaws dive into the open ribcage, teeth plying through viscera. Flesh peels with a tug and rewards the bear’s hyperphagic appetite. Three cubs weave into the camera’s view through a bitterbrush maze, ready to paint...

3 Fall Presentations That Produce Bomber Bass
Tony J. Peterson
Sep 21, 2023
In the beginning of September, which qualifies as fall in Minnesota, I spent some time targeting smallies on a good-sized lake. The fish were just starting to school up, and the conditions were right. It almost wasn’t fair. The competition of schooling fish, along with the pressing need to consume...

How a Spreadsheet Can Help You Kill Your Target Buck
Mark Kenyon
Sep 20, 2023
Mature bucks don’t do things by accident. Outside of a few bewildering moments during the rut, there’s almost always a reason for their movements, almost always a why. For this reason, the best deer hunters in the world make it a priority to ask and answer a whole lot of “Why Questions.” Why did...

Venison Tenderloin with Garlic Butter
(0)
Danielle Prewett
Sep 20, 2023
For many hunters, venison backstrap is the ultimate prize, but I believe that the tenderloins are actually the most tender and delicious part of a deer or elk. A tenderloin steak seared in a hot skillet and bathed in garlic butter practically melts in your mouth; there’s no denying that it lives up...

Should Drones Be Allowed to Recover Dead Deer?
Eli Fournier
Sep 8, 2023
Under a light snow, an infrared-equipped drone buzzes a timbered property somewhere in the Midwest heartland. The operator, Mike Yoder, watches a screen on his controller, looking for the heat signatures of deer. As the light fades, he finally narrows in on a static target in a dense pocket of...

5 Common Cartridges I'll Never Hunt Deer With
Jordan Sillars
Sep 7, 2023
One of the great things about whitetail hunting is that it isn’t hard to find a suitable cartridge. Whitetail are America’s most popular big game animal, and ammo makers have developed dozens of options for that specific pursuit. Plus, as a Class 2 critter (according to Chuck Hawk’s categorization...

If You Can Only Have One Gun, Pick This One
Jordan Sillars
Jun 22, 2023
The question on gun blogs and internet forums is usually posed like this: “The world is ending and you only have enough room for one gun in your bug-out bag. Which would you select?” The MeatEater edition of this question is a little different: “If hunters (for some godforsaken reason) were limited...
