Boone and Crockett Club's Audio AdventuresDeterminedBy Jerry J. James,
My cougar hunt began in the spring of 1979 when I first decided to go on a hunt. I wrote letters to guides, and then eagerly awaited the morning mail for the replies to come. I was able to narrow my guide selection, and after calling several references, I finally decided on Bob Smith of Kooskia, Idaho. I had read about Idaho’s reputation of having large cats, and the Selway-Bitteroot area has yielded numerous record-book cats.

I had just been thrown from the sled, when John, my guide, prematurely threw out the anchor before the sled had slowed enough for a safe dismounting. I landed on my chest, with my rifle under me, sliding across the ice in the snow. We had tried to intercept a large boar that had been pursuing a sow, with two year-old cubs. We just weren’t quick enough. The boar had reached the new ice, and was quickly on its way to the rough ice.

Ultrarunning History12: Endurance Riding – Part 1 (1814-1954)By Davy Crockett
Both a podcast episode and a full article
Endurance riding is the equestrian sport that includes controlled long-distance riding/racing. The sport has existed for more than a century in various forms. 100-mile trail ultramarathons, especially the Western States Endurance Run, Old Dominion 100, and Vermont 100 can trace their roots to endurance riding. Other trail 100s that emerged in the 1980s were also influenced by endurance riding practices.
Ultrarunners should feel indebted to those of the endurance riding sport who had the vision to establish some early 100-mile trail races for runners. The trail 100-miler inherited many of t...2018-12-0826 min

It was a revolutionary step forward in scouting technology, but there were some very important pieces missing from the Google map. For one, we couldn't instantly in-the field in real-time tell where the boundary lines of property existed. Sure, we could spend hours looking at town survey maps, but nothing was instant.

Deer Hunt Big Buck Registry fueled by Rackology.org245 DOUG LAIRD - The World's #1 Antlered DoeYes, we know this is the Big Buck Registry. But when a 199" composite antlered doe becomes the only Boone & Crockett doe on record, it's worthy. Despite this show airing originally on April 1st, this is not a joke, despite the obvious appearance. During the 2014 Missouri gun season, Doug Laird came within range of what he thought was the biggest buck on his property. Little did he know that his deer would become the only doe entry EVER into the Boone and Crockett record books.
