"On The Cover"

duffy4 · #1 07-26-2008, 01:08 PM

Each month I buy Alberta Outdoorsmen and I often pick up North American
Whitetail and always Bug Buck Magazine. The only mag. I get in the mail is The Outdoor Edge as I am a Alberta Fish and Game Association member and it comes with the membership. The other hook and bullet mags. I glance through on the news stands and if there is a particluar article or two in an issue I may buy one.

The Cover picture is meant to catch your eye and plant the disire to buy the mag. in your mind. Well the cover picture sold me a Sports Afield magazine today. The August issue has a pic. of the kind of bighorn ram that dreams are made of. Looking at the ram on my wall, it looks like the teenager he is compared to the grand-dad on the cover of SA mag.

Not sure if I am allowed to scan the pic and post it here. But check it out on the magazine stands.

Sports Afield definatly has some amazing photography in most issues.....and the front covers are usually pretty damn cool....

The hardest part about hunting "Bugs" is getting a good head shot so you don't spoil the meat.

I think we should debate the "ethics" of relying on a head shot to kill a bug, a shot thru the midsection joint puts them down and liquifies the organs into a delectable puree

This one time at bug camp......... I took a dandy.......

Now this buggy buisness is fun and all

but we are detracting from the topic of 1. the effect of a great cover picture and 2. the incredable big ram on the cover of August Sports Afield.

Must be a slow weekend for a lot of us, to pick on Duffy's typo.

He could take the wind out of sails by editing it. Nothing as eye catching as a good ram.
