CMP Announces New Wyoming State Directors for Youth Programs

The Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) is happy to welcome two new State Directors for the state of Wyoming: brother and sister duo, Phillip and Linda Dobkins.

The CMP appoints State Directors to oversee marksmanship programs in each of the 50 states. The mission of the State Directors is to provide leadership, resource and program information, coordination, networking, motivation and publicity for junior shooting within their state.

Raised in Laramie, Wyoming, Phillip and Linda Dobkins have been active in marksmanship most of their lives through competition and coaching. The pair even started their own youth shooting sports program in nearby Cheyenne. 

“The logical next step was to start hosting matches and helping other clubs grow,” Linda explained of their involvement in youth shooting sports. “We checked with the CMP and found that the State Director position was currently vacant for Wyoming, so we both applied.”

“Participation in junior smallbore/air rifle competitions have dropped recently, and that prompted me to contact the CMP about upcoming matches,” Phillip added. “Since I’m also head coach of my own program, I felt I could really help boost participation and match sponsorship by becoming State Director and providing leadership to other clubs in the state.”

Topwater Tactics that Tap into Striper’s DNA

By Todd Corayer

Striped bass, renowned for their opportunistic, often lazy feeding style yet beloved for their line-stripping runs when hooked, are a conundrum to many. Successful striper fishing requires all anglers to be prepared for both moods, armed with tools to force bass to attack – to call them on a real-world, DNA level. When tides, temperatures, winds, and even Nature herself are working against you, the Shimano CURRENT SNIPER Splash Walk is the one, special, exciting lure to beckon the biggest stripers.

At 3 3/8 ounces, it’s a 7 ¼” long cast spook reminiscent of classic search baits, combining high-tech design and old-school fishing sense. At rest, its rear section sits low with just its head peering over the surface. It’s an exhausted, wounded fish. At full throttle, it’s a drum roll of rattles and splashes working perfect patterns, rising, crashing, exploding, dominating the surface, zig-zagging in a frantic flight reaction. I think it makes stripers angry. 

Combine a Shimano Teramar North East 7-foot, Medium Heavy power, Moderate Fast action rod with a Shimano Spheros SW reel spooled with 30-pound-test braid to work the CURRENT SNIPER Splash Walk properly. You’ll need some sensitivity to present it in tight locations, coupled with real backbone to hold fish tight. Tie 18 to 24 inches of 30-pound-test fluorocarbon leader directly to braid and the Splash Walk directly to your leader. 

Splash Walks perform best when you understand how stripers hunt so take a few practice casts off the dock before you pick a spot. “Right, left. Right, left. Right, left. See? Just like that,” Captain Jack Sprengel of East Coast Charters taught me. It takes time to learn the method, to find that sweet rhythm but the best fishing often comes after listening to solid advice. “Right, left, right, left…” Proper cadence develops after a few casts. Keep your rod tip up, your reeling steady. Find your timing of rod up and down, right and left. Slowly, you will develop muscle memory, making the Splash Walk suddenly heel right, left, right, left. Water will splash as it hauls itself up and down, driven by your smooth power and control. It’s a deadly siren call and a lot of fun to retrieve.

Zanders Introduces Exclusive DRD Tactical Sub-6 Rifles

SPARTA, IL – Zanders Sporting Goods, a national distributor located in Sparta, Illinois, is proud to announce its exclusive DRD Tactical Sub-6 Rifles.

The AR15 meets the AK47 with this super lightweight mashup. Coming in at just under six pounds, it has steel in all the right places to offer solid, rugged construction in an impressively light design. Built from the ground up, every feature was redesigned with superior performance in mind. The lower receiver features an integrated 1913 picatinny rail on the butt plate, with a side-folding Magpul® buttstock securely mounted to the rear rail. Fire with the stock folded if you please. The new bolt with dovetailed gas key incorporates rail slots to eliminate BCG tilt and reduces friction for unbelievably smooth, efficient cycling that runs cleaner than standard AR systems. The barrel extension provides better lockup utilizing a trunnion system composed of steel on steel vs. steel on aluminum, which increases strength while reducing wear.

House Passes the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act

Landmark legislation that would invest in rebuilding at-risk fish and wildlife populations now requires Senate approval

(Washington, D.C.) — The House of Representatives has passed the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act (H.R. 2773) in a 231-190 vote, bringing us one step closer to securing a solution that has been championed by the hunting and fishing community since 2016. The bill recently advanced out of committee in the Senate and awaits a floor vote in that chamber. 

The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act would amend the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act to provide an additional $1.4 billion in dedicated funding per year—$1.3 billion for state agencies and $97.5 million for Tribes—to improve habitat, recover wildlife populations, and restore the infrastructure for both our natural systems and outdoor recreation opportunities.

“House passage of the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act is a defining victory for wildlife, habitat, outdoor recreation, and our economy, because we know that heading off wildlife threats is more effective—and costs less—than taking emergency action,” says Whit Fosburgh, president and CEO of the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership. “We applaud members of the House for this step today and urge the Senate to take up and pass this bill without delay.”

State fish and wildlife agencies have identified more than 12,000 species in need of conservation action that would benefit from the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act. Included on that list are some species of particular concern to hunters and anglers, including ruffed grouse, greater sage grouse, coho salmon, and sockeye salmon.

Colt Anaconda Awarded the 2022 Golden Bullseye Handgun of the Year by American Hunter Magazine

Colt’s Manufacturing Company is honored to announce that the Colt Anaconda has been selected as the 2022 American Hunter Golden Bullseye Handgun of the Year. Published by the National Rifle Association (NRA), American Hunter is the largest circulation hunting magazine in the nation.

In their 20th year, the NRA Publications Golden Bullseye Awards acknowledge the finest products available in shooting sports. The winners are selected by a seven-member committee consisting of editors, graphic designers and veteran NRA Publications staff, representing more than a century of collective experience in the shooting and hunting industry. To qualify for consideration for a Golden Bullseye Award, a product must have been:

Recently introduced and available to consumers before the selection of the Golden Bullseye AwardsUsed/tested by a staff member or regular contributor to the magazine and/or affiliated mediaReliable in the field, meeting or exceeding the evaluator’s expectationsInnovative in design and functionReadily perceived as a value to the purchaserStyled in a manner befitting the shooting and hunting industry and, perhaps more importantly, its enthusiasts

“Chambered in the very powerful .44 Rem Mag, the Colt Anaconda was entirely re-designed in 2021 with an oversized Colt Python action, creating a double-action revolver worthy of its pedigree,” said Paul Spitale, Colt’s Executive VP Commercial Business. “A linear leaf spring action provides a non-stacking, smooth-as-glass trigger pull, while a bulked-up solid stainless-steel frame adds strength and durability for the powerful .44 Magnum cartridge.”

Additionally, recoil-absorbing Hogue grips soak up the magnum recoil. The Anaconda includes adjustable, interchangeable sights for optimum shooting at the range or in the field. Shooters who want to mount an optic will appreciate the Anaconda’s drilled and tapped frame. The 2021 Anaconda Colt has 6- and 8-inch ventilated barrel options and a recessed target crown for muzzle protection.
