Editorial Going the Distance
W
hat is in a cover? If you consider the last two issues of Hunting Illustrated magazine, it’s everything! Our Spring issue had the new world record typical SCI archery buck, taken by Bowdy Gardner of Utah, gracing the cover. This issue has the new world record archery non-typical SCI mule deer, taken from Canada by Beau Knutson. That is something you may never see again. Two magnificent trophies taken in the same year (2012) and appearing on the front cover back to back in the same magazine. This is what Hunting Illustrated brings to you the reader--quality content with quality trophies and great tips and tactics from our editorial staff. Ted Nugent and Eva Shockey’s articles keep us all well entertained. This is why you need to look no further than right here inside the pages of HI to get your fix to feed your hunting addiction. This summer issue talks long range. We review the Gunwerks LR-1000 system and Steve Alderman talks long-range archery shooting. As we prepare for the upcoming hunting season I hope we are practicing not only long-range shots but also practical shots and angled shots. This will allow us to enter the field with confidence and the ability to be ethical hunters. Hunt like you mean it!
