Sound Off Sundays | Burna Boy Bank On It

November brings excitement for a multitude of reasons, especially if you’re a bowhunter. There’s the pre-rut, then the rut — that magical time in the whitetail woods, in most of the country anyway, where anything is possible. Giant bucks can be had, and encounters begin to peak.

Virginia’s Earn-A-Buck program has been around for more than a decade, but this season was my first time hunting under it, and my home county’s first year participating in the program. I’ve hunted enough to know every regulation has a purpose, but I didn’t expect this one to reshape my entire season.

Veterans Day | Equalized Outdoors
Veterans Day carries a specific weight for Equalized Outdoors. It is not a day of mourning—that belongs to Memorial Day, though there still an element of remberance.
