Outdoor Life is challenging its readers to test their skills in a series of pursuits called the Outdoor Life Grand Slam Adventures. Developed to give readers the chance of a lifetime, Outdoor Life's Grand Slam Adventures provide an opportunity to take multiple species of game all on a single hunt.

Western Slam
Outdoor Life Grand Slam No. 1 saw our winner, Stuart Littlefield, join Editor-in-Chief Todd Smith on a quest for elk, pronghorn, mule deer and grouse in our Western slam. The hunt took place with Elkhorn Outfitters in northwestern Colorado.

Turkey Slam
For our second adventure, Outdoor Life Hunting Editor Andrew McKean accompanied winner Shawn White on the road trip of a dozen lifetimes on their quest for a wild turkey Grand Slam. And to take this endeavor to an even higher level, Shawn had to tag his four birds in just nine days.

An outdoor cameraman, courtesy of Realtree, captured all of the action on video. That’s right, besides publishing the story of this exciting quest in issues of Outdoor Life, all of the action was caught on tape and webcast on the Turkey Grand Slam page. Some footage will also appear in a future Realtree All-Stars of Spring DVD.

Alaska Slam
Grand Slam Adventure No. 3 took place in September 2008 in the wilds of Alaska! Here, Brandon Steele accompanied Alaska hunting expert and OL contributing writer Chris Batin on a 12-day hunt for brown bear, caribou and black bear. Hunting upland gamebirds and jump shooting for waterfowl were also be part of the Alaska slam, with fall fishing as a bonus. The result was a truly unforgettable adventure.

All arrangements were handled through Chris Batin’s Alaska Hunter Publications. Hunts were provided by Lost Creek Company, Alaska Raft and Kayak, and Hidden Alaska Guides and Outfitters. Part of this hunt was a river float trip while the other part took place in the higher alpine region. Outdoor Life covered all travel fees and tag fees for one brown bear, one caribou, one fishing/hunting license and one black bear/wolf tag. Truly a hunt of a lifetime.

Africa Slam
Tim Wagner has been selected as our Africa Grand Slam winner. Tim will be traveling to South Africa along with Deputy Editor Gerry Bethge in June for a 7-day plains-game safari. This hunt was arranged through Cabela’s Outdoor Adventures and will include a fully guided hunt provided by African Silwane Hunters for 6 trophies, including Southern Greater kudu, gemsbok, impala, warthog, duiker and blesbuck.

Outdoor Life will be sending both a still photographer and a video crew along, so you'll be able to see all of the action yourself on outdoorlife.com/grandslam.

Colorado Slam
Welcome to Big Sky Country, and your chance to hunt its legendary big game. One lucky Outdoor Life reader will have the opportunity to hunt elk, whitetail deer and birds on our latest Grand Slam Adventure. Our Montana Slam will include round-trip airfare and a 5-day hunt in the heart of the Rockies, where you’ll hunt elk and deer with Upper Canyon Outfitters and Advantage Backcountry Outfitters. Elk hunting takes place out of a classic wall-tent camp, and whitetail hunting is along the productive Ruby River. Upland bird hunting is a bonus after you notch your big-game tags.

One of Outdoor Life’s editors will accompany the winner on this adventure of a lifetime. We’ll also provide a cameraman to capture all the action, and the still photography and video will be posted on outdoorlife.com.

Our lucky winner will be outfitted with premium gear from our partners: SureFire, Zeiss, Suzuki, Remington and Cabela’s.
