Never considered the Remington Tac-14 for dove hunting? Or maybe breaking clays? Most people haven’t – and wouldn’t - but here at SHWAT™ we like to try things that others would dismiss. Assign whatever motive you want at this point, but when Remington invited me to a...
As soon as I got off the phone with John, the liaison for Hunters Helping Heros in Maryland, and he told me I could invite one other person to go with us I knew exactly who to ask. It had been almost 12 years since I hunted with my dad and it seemed like families,...
The month of March has finally arrived and the obsession continues. For all my turkey hunters down here in the south, you know exactly what that means. It's that spring drifting in the air, flowers blooming so beautifully, and that lovely pollen everyone loves so...
Surprise! There was a day when I was against hunting/harming animals. I know you can’t tell it from the big grin on my face during my super chilly Louisiana duck hunt, but I’m a small town girl who wasn't brought up hunting, one who knew nothing about hunting. But I...

Question: What do you get when you cross the Kansas Governor, a shoot house at Gunsite Academy, canine athletes, shotguns, SHWAT™ and pheasants? A five star hunting experience that any action adventure hunter can get excited about. So yeah, prepare yourself, we’re...
The more I interact with guns, the more apparent I find the correlation between music and firearms - they both have the power to produce instant memories. They force us to think, learn, feel and ask questions, and, much like music, guns provoke within their operators...
