For the recurve hunters, the longbow hunters, the storytellers and the outdoorsmen who still believe in the old ways. This is a magazine as gritty as the hunt itself.
Three volumes. Each one taking you somewhere new. By hunters, for hunters. No gear reviews. No product placements. It's all stories, tactics, interviews and adventures.
VOL. 1 — ALASKA Alaska has tested traditional bowhunters since before Fred Bear first pointed a bow north.
Stand at thirty yards as sixteen hundred pounds of bull charges. Bryan Burkhardt lived it
Learn what it actually takes to hunt the Last Frontier with Monty Browning
Follow Jake Downs into a hunt that turns chaotic fast
VOL. 2 — HIGH COUNTRY Mountain hunting the way it actually is.
Mark Sasser alone in the California high country with no one to ask and no margin for error
South Cox with decades of steep miles behind him telling you straight what it takes to stay in it
Shane Mowery in lion country where the dogs have skin in the game and fast decisions are the only kind that matter
VOL. 3 — THE GREAT LAKES Nine hunters who know this country share everything.
Jeff Kavanagh called a bull moose to ten yards from a bright red canoe
Shawn James needs over a thousand pounds of meat a year to feed his family and holds nothing back
Monty Browning waited a week in a Canadian wilderness swamp for something that came in at eight yards just before dark and never made a sound getting there
Printed in a 1950s style. 6" x 9" format. Archival paper and perfect binding. Vintage illustrations. Black-and-white photography. The kind of books you pull off the shelf in twenty years and hand to someone who needs to understand why this lifestyle means what it means.
One verified buyer put it better than we ever could. He bought it for himself and ended up reading it to his twin eight-year-old boys at bedtime. Said it's what hunting is really about.
Yeah. That's exactly what it is.
This is Trad Hunters. Hold it in your hands, read it and you'll understand why.
