All aspects of life, as far as we can tell, require tools, though not simply hardware and hammers. We use various tools to better understand our challenges and our passions, so even self-reflection and communication strategies can be tools. In the upland space, we need happy dogs with good noses and maybe some hardware, but the landscape offers almost unlimited opportunity. It’s not that we’re needy. It’s more like we’re wanty.

In this issue of Covey Rise, our On Point section looks at some of the latest tech tools that can enhance your outdoor experience. But that’s just the beginning. We explore the history and future of Schöffel, a family business with a line of clothing that hangs in your closet and begs you to take it out and test it against the elements. If clothes make the man, you need to know this man.

An important upland tool is instruction, and we look at that from two different perspectives. First, we spend time with a talented shooting instructor who helps others sharpen their skills in a decidedly British way. Second, we enroll in Guide School to explore how lodges, destinations, and individuals are keeping hospitality and discipline an integral part of the upland experience.

Among our columns in the back of the book, we consider the art of cigar cutters, essential tools for enjoying a good smoke, unless you’re starring in a cowboy movie and prefer to bite off the end. For our canine partners, we explore the tools available to rehabilitate injuries they incur afield. And finally, our canine correspondent speaks frankly about the most ubiquitous tool on the planet, the cell phone.

We hope you consider Covey Rise a took of sorts that helps you enjoy your days afield more thoroughly, and thanks for reading.
