Pump shotguns have always held a special place with America’s hunters. For many of us, it was the first thing we carried, and now many shooters are also collecting vintage slide actions for nostalgia. We think they’re a great choice for new and young shooters and it’s hard to beat their simple operation and reliability.

What’s been your experience with pump shotguns?

🦌🐕Deer hunting with hounds.

It’s a longstanding and uniquely, American pastime, a beloved family tradition for many hunters in the Southeast, and a prime opportunity to showcase the ethical and fair chase pursuit of hunting with dogs.

Despite its place in line with other forms of dog hunting, deer hunting with hounds seems to carry some myths and misconceptions that falsely represent this important part of our shared heritage.

To set the record straight and get to the source, we had avid deer dogger and author to share his take on the matter.
