Field & Stream’s hunting coverage brings together more than a century of knowledge, experience, and storytelling from some of the best hunters and outdoor writers in America. From unforgettable adventures in wild country to practical, expert-written how-to articles and the latest hunting news, our stories explore the people, places, wildlife, traditions, and techniques that make hunting such a deeply rewarding pursuit.

Explore expert hunting advice for every kind of hunter and every kind of game. Our big game hunting coverage takes you into the field after whitetail deer, mule deer, elk, bear, pronghorn, or other big-game species with stories and how-to guides on scouting, tracking, animal behavior, hunting seasons, and finding success in challenging country. For bowhunters, we cover proven tactics, strategies, and the skills needed to get within range of wary game no matter if you hunt with a compound bow, crossbow, or traditional archery tackle.

Our bird hunting and waterfowl coverage spans the full spectrum of upland and migratory birds, from ruffed grouse, pheasants, and quail to ducks, geese, and cranes. Read compelling upland bird hunting stories, learn proven tactics for hunting wild birds, and discover expert advice on finding birds and understanding their behavior. Our turkey hunting coverage explores calling, scouting, spring and fall tactics, and the behavior of pressured gobblers. We also cover small game hunting, predator hunting, and the many other pursuits that fill the hunting calendar.

Field & Stream also delivers hunting news and in-depth coverage of the biggest stories in the hunting world, including giant elk, big bears, trophy whitetails, and record-book animals, including state and historic hunting records. Whether you’re chasing a mature whitetail, calling in a spring gobbler, tracking an elk across the mountains, or simply fascinated by the biggest animals ever taken, Field & Stream delivers authoritative hunting journalism, compelling narratives, and expert how-to guidance.
