I grew up reading Outdoor Life and reading Jack O'Connor. I guess I read my Dads issues starting in the late 50's when I could read. I have a lot of his books and still read them from time to time. I really liked O'Connor but same as anyone he had his preferences and stuck with them. Elmer had his too. I enjoyed Skeeter Skelton and Bill Jordan as well.
These days I only take three magazines. Handloader, Rifle and Fur, Fish and Game. Of the three Rifle is the least interest to me but can never seem to let it go. Fur Fish and Game is like the outdoor magazines of the past. No mountain bike stories or any of that pseudo outdoor stuff. Mostly ordinary folks sharing their experiences with a mix of regulars and their monthly pieces. It will be the one I keep. They will be delivering it after I go to the happy hunting grounds.
