Living in rural Arizona, I expect to see a snake every time I step outside. While I almost never see one, I expect one to be there. As I move about in this environment, I expect to see scorpions, coyotes, mountain lions, bobcats, loose dogs and bad people, among others. Just the other night, I saw a mountain lion at my gate while I was outside looking for my dog. I looked at the lion, it looked at me, it strolled by and quickly disappeared. Things happen, and I expect them.

This month�s cover feature is on the 2020 U.S. Helice National Championships. For those unfamiliar with the game, helice is a clay sport that has been popular in Europe since the 1960s and is gaining ground stateside. Instead of using a traditional clay bird, the target for helice (often called a �ZZ bird�) has a round, plastic �witness cap� attached to a propeller. The wings provide for erratic flight and a difficult shooting game. When struck by pellets, the witness cap separates from the propeller, which signals a successful hit. Author Greg Tinsley recaps the 2020 Helice Nationals, and goes more in depth about the sport in �Beauty and the Helice.�

What�s the most important piece of deer hunting advice you�ve ever received? I�m guessing it didn�t have anything to do with pre-rut tactics, analyzing moon phases, or developing cellular trail camera strategies. It was probably a lot simpler. Maybe something like: �Stop wiggling so damn much and listen for deer.� The thing is, these little lessons are actually pretty hard to learn. That�s because you have to live them firsthand and even blow a few hunts before they start to sink in. Compile enough of these experiences in the deer woods and, over time, something like wisdom starts to develop. New hunting tactics can be effective, the latest gear and the hottest new guns are fun to obsess over, but it�s wisdom that kills deer.

It�s been said if you give a soldier or cop an anvil for Christmas, he�ll break it by Valentine�s Day.

It is a Mossberg 590A1. I�m not alone as it is the duty shotgun of choice for military and law enforcement agencies worldwide. It is the only pump action shotgun to pass MilSpec 3443E in the shotgun selection process.

Hollow point bullets come in an amazing array of styles, and among them is the boat tail. The hollow point boat tail bullet (HP-BT) � also known as the boat tail hollow point or BTHP ammo � is primarily a rifle ammunition used for hunting big game at long range, and is sometimes used as a coyote and wolf ammo. Like other hollow points, the bullet expands rapidly upon impact, creating a large wound channel and typically stopping most creatures in their tracks with that single shot.

I was fortunate enough to tour the CZ factory in the Czech Republic some years ago after this beautiful country was freed from the yoke of Communism. During my drive to the massive factory complex we passed block after block of depressing grey concrete �apartment� housing units. In the grey morning light, they looked more like prisons, courtesy of their former Russian rulers. It was sobering, and frankly, I wasn�t sure what to expect at CZ.
