All Videos » Highlights Michael McIntosh — 1945-2010 We learned with great sadness last week of the passing of Michael McIntosh—writer, sportsman, gentleman and friend to many of us. Our thoughts and our deepest sympathies are with his wife, Connie. As the first lines of Michael’s article in the first issue of Shooting Sportsman show so well, he had the rare voice of direct, descriptive writing that imbued a day afield with meaning. Michael did as much as any writer of the past two decades to inform double-gun and wingshooting enthusiasts, but more, he inspired us with his passion for good guns, good shooting and all that is good in bird hunting. We will miss Michael deeply, and we will remember him with the joy of the writing he has left us. Firesteel Creek Lodge South Dakota's Firesteel Creek Lodge offers a ranch-full of possibilities, including pheasant, sharptail and Hun hunting on more than 100,000 acres of prime upland habitat. Classic Bird Hunts Classic Bird Hunts offers challenging grouse hunting over talented Brittanys in the fabled coverts of the Upper Midwest. Back Bay Outfitter Tommy Cornicelli--aka Back Bay Outfitter--is tuned in to great gunning for Canada geese on Long Island as well as bay shoots from a floating blind for ducks.
