In the June-July issue, we meet stocker, a sculptor of wood who creates the beautiful stocks on best-quality guns: his name is Paul Hodgins. Born and raised in the UK and living and working now in the US in Logan, Utah, Hodgins was part of a unique apprentice program at Holland \u0026amp; Holland that he joined in 1973 at age 16. There, he had intense training and acquired the skills to become a stocker, or a “sculptor” of finely finished wood on best shotguns.

Though a son of the South and a lifelong quail hunter, Doc Blythe had never hunted truly wild quail on a private plantation—before being invited behind the gates of Longpine, as he writes, “a nearly 6,000-acre savanna of towering longleaf pines and open fields. It presents one of the most unique and picturesque sites a quail hunter can imagine.

One return participant of Blitx shoots, Roger Sanger, sums it up about the program started by Lars and Jen Magnusson: “Lars and Jen are trying to uphold the heritage, for example, with necktie and breeks for gentlemen. They haven’t tried to ‘Americanize’ the sport. Many of us like that, it gives you a different feel. You can’t use an automatic or a pump gun, for safety and also because of tradition.

But not the posh Range Rover Sport—it offers first-class comfort, with exceptional performance. The author, Silvio Calabi, quotes the vehicle company’s chief program engineer Stuart Frith on what he is proudest of about the RRS: “(Frith) thought a moment and then said, with British understatement, ‘It’s the way the vehicle seems to stretch the laws of physics.’”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eLet’s not forget food, glorious food, done \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eCovey\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eRise\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e style—Managing Editor Miles DeMott takes us to a memorable meal at Peninsula Grill, an anchor venue in the fantastic Planters Inn, in Charleston, South Carolina.

For more on these fast-paced adventures check out “California Road Birds,” Ben Williams’ column “A View From the Top,” and Reid Bryant’s “Of Men and Dogs.” Shane Mahoney also reminds us that conservation practices, no matter how small, are key to preserving our wildlife and upland habitat—so that we can enjoy those adventures for many years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCovey Rise \u003c\/em\u003eoften celebrates classics that improve with age—for example, a well-seasoned cast iron pan.

Spirits guru Fred Minnick finds sublime flavors—and surprising value—in long-aged Scotch, while wine columnist Karen McNeil plumbs the appeal of age-worthy Syrahs and finds robust versions from arid eastern Washington and Oregon, perfect for pairing with game.

As Marcus states, “Good double gunning is a skill that requires a sound understanding between both the shooter and loader . . . an experienced partnership has an almost rhythmic timing, not dissimilar to an accomplished ballroom dance.” Watch the step-by-step process almost literally shoot off the pages through the illustrations by Frederick Stivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are reminded to live every day in a positive and healthy way through Oliver Hartner’s article featuring Executive Chef Rachel Hogan, whose days battling Lyme disease inspire her to have as many outdoor adventures as possible. Her holistic lifestyle helps her live one sunrise, one hunt, and one scrumptious meal at a time. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust in time for holiday preparations, Jordan Mackay urges us to refresh by the fire with a fine white wine, Fred Minnick parses through the brutal battle between vodka and whiskey, and Chuck Holland discusses how the Nicaraguan political turmoil may affect cigar availability. Through all this, Frank keeps our ethos in check, reminding us to be thankful for all we have this holiday season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake a break from life’s responsibilities, be thankful for our hunting opportunities, grab this issue of \u003cem\u003eCovey Rise\u003c\/em\u003e, and get lost in the upland lifestyle.

Our stories unfold through poetic words on paper acting in concert with stunning color photography and illustrations. Our professional storytellers have a passion to communicate both innovative and classic upland tales.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis February-March \u003cem\u003eCovey Rise\u003c\/em\u003e issue is a great example of our continuing standard, starting with “In the Shadows of Giants” by Reid Bryant. His intricate words describe how Ronnie Smith, Jr. and his family continue their own established standard for producing excellence in bird dogs. And this quote does nothing less than draw you in to learn what comes next: “As Ronnie, Susanna, Gage, and Reagan converged at the pasture gate to lay a course for the day, they too were teasing a tradition of fine bird dogs out of a rich past and into an unfolding future.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContinuing the theme of innovative storytelling, Marcus Janssen’s article on the famed artist Alice Arnold shows the power of stories told in a different medium. “Almost a decade ago, Arnold forged her identity in the sporting art world—portraying wildlife against plain backgrounds on raw linen canvases with lots of negative space around them. But the negative space somehow highlights the poised energy of our quarry species, and the twitchy, staccato movement you associate with red-legged partridge and pheasant in particular.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConservation is always at the forefront of the\u003cem\u003e Covey Rise \u003c\/em\u003eagenda, and Fred Minnick’s comprehensive depiction of Ashbourne Farms combines conservation, fine cuisine, and the uplands all in one. Fred quotes the owner of Ashbourne Farms, Austin Musselman: “To bring back quail is really an accomplishment. Quail is our main interest, and what’s good for quail is also good for other nongame animals like migratory songbirds, and for pollinators like butterflies and bees.” The conservation-minded ethos of the Ashbourne Farms proprietors is also reflected in the food they serve and the mindset of the guests who set foot on their grounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur storied columns, once again, provide the framework for readers to further their upland lifestyle. Renowned storyteller, Ben O. Williams, urges us to capture our memories in photographs, David Zumbaugh stresses the connection between upland habitat and water quality, and Frank finishes with a heartfelt tale that brings us to tears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the unique hunting adventures to the optimum updates on food and spirits, please enjoy this issue of \u003cem\u003eCovey Rise\u003c\/em\u003e, and rest assured that our standard for best storytelling continues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCover by Lee Thomas Kjos\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Covey Rise","offers":[{"title":"Regular","offer_id":16083718701158,"sku":"CR-V7N2-FM","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bundle","offer_id":32004746018918,"sku":"CR-V7N2-FM","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5665\/files\/V7N2.jpg?v=1707953829"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5665\/collections\/summer-sale-20-off.png?v=1780503977","url":"https:\/\/shop.coveyrisemagazine.com\/collections\/annual-summer-sale.oembed?page=2","provider":"Covey Rise","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
