Project Upland Magazine is a niche publication and small business built on a subscription-based model. What does this mean? Traditional hunting publications are based on advertising models, meaning they serve advertisers first and readers second. For over five years, Project Upland has built the opposite reputation with its print publication, always putting the reader first. This means fewer ads, no advertorials, no gift guides, no lodge reviews, or product reviews based on the highest bidder.
This also means we rely on everyday people to subscribe to our publication so we can maintain our journalistic integrity by seeking stories that resonate with the upland culture, which is our readership. We focus on delivering captivating content that resonates with individuals who share a passion for wild birds, public lands, shotguns, and hunting dogs. If these subjects ignite a fire within you, then our magazine is precisely tailored to your interests. Join us in celebrating the world of upland hunting and the wonderful community that surrounds it!

This is really a great magazine and website. real articles, not just high-end stuff or articles that are for all practical purposes advertorials for products. I only wish it was published more frequently. Highly recommend both the magazine and their other products.
Karl J. Findling –
Thorough and well written. I love the layout, photos, and the depth of articles is a winner!
Mark Stephan –
Great stories , photos and recipes from fellow upland bird hunters and folks like myself who enjoy the outdoors and care about conservation. Writers open their hearts to share real life experiences about family, mental health, and addiction . Excellent writing !
Joe Sasso –
There is no substitute for Project Upland! Over the last 35 years I have subscribed to ever conceivable hunting magazine there is and was. Project Upland is simply the best there is.
Jonathan R –
A great magazine and website for all levels of Hunters. I look forward to it every 4 months. It’s great to have high quality physical media now a days!

In today’s world, there are fewer and fewer print magazines, especially covering hunting and the outdoors. Project Upland is such a great publication. Very well prepared articles, a great variety of topics and just a top shelf, quality publication.

Spring 2026 article Last Bobwhite reminded me of CT Ruffed Grouse. I chased birds in the 80’s up until the mid 90’s. Bye the late 90’s they were a mirage my senses strained for. Thanks for reminding me that habitat construction is so important!
Tab Core –
The magazine is a fantastic read with great content and photography.
Mike Siegel –
I can’t say enough about this off the scale, high quality magazine. From the physical quality of the paper to the excellent illustration and photography everything is top class. While I love the stories I admit to searching out new recipes for upland game. Never disappointed.

Love finding it in my mailbox every time, fonts, writing, editing and Photos are always so well put together and their training editorials are great to have in print in a digital world you don’t have to google your way into trying to reference something you read during the off season!
Dean Mullins –

Love everything about this magazine. Great cause, great pictures and great stories. All put together by some great people. What more could you want besides being out there. But this magazine’s definitely a great way to spend some time when we can’t be and it certainly gives inspiration for when we finally are out there. Things aren’t important but making memories and living certainly are and I believe this magazine captures that feeling and puts that realization in hand.
jason irish –
love this magazine. wish it was monthly. articles are great and high quality pictures. love that every edition has a variety of areas covered
Jason M. –
Always look forward to getting the Project Upland magazine in the mail. Nice enough magazine to leave on the coffee table and usaully sparks up good conversation even when the guests are not hunters or even dog people.
Cole Brockmoller –
I look forward to every issue. This magazine doesn’t just tell stories; it breathes them. Every page carries the rhythm of boots in grass, the hush before a flush, the quiet conversation between hunter and dog that never needs words. There’s a soul to it—human, honest, and deeply rooted in the uplands.
What sets it apart is how completely it understands the bond between hunter and dog. Not as a tool or tradition, but as a partnership built on trust, instinct, and shared wild places. You can feel the frost on a morning field, hear the bell go silent, see the moment a dog locks up—heart and muscle and purpose all aligned. It captures that fleeting, sacred pause that upland hunters live for.
And the photography—good grief. As an artist, I’m floored. These aren’t just images; they’re windows. Light, texture, motion—they all work together to pull you in until you can almost smell the prairie and feel the weight of a shotgun in your hands.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: upland hunting, especially behind good dogs, is hunting in cursive. Every issue reads like a handwritten letter from the field, inked with dust, wind, and memory. The only problem with this magazine is you only get four a year.
Mike D. –
Artwork is amazing, editorial/storytelling is great. I look forward to every issue!
Travis Neebling –
Project Upland combines very well written stories and excellent photography. It is definitely in its own league. I appreciate that cover topics from across North America and they don’t have all the typical sales-pitch stories touting the benefits of a piece of gear they never really tested.
Rafe Lapham (verified owner) –
I love this magazine! it is the best, visually and content-wise, upland hunting magazine in the market.

I have you guys on You Tube, listened to the podcast, etc.. Never bought a subscription. So I get my son to start watching and he buys a subscription. Next thing I know he is telling me how dumb I’ve for not reading this and supporting you guys. I got my first magazine and just the feel of the cover you know it is quality. Keep up the good work.
Ron –
Print is still a thing! I love the quality of this magazine, very thorough and informative on a vast selection of topics. The quality of the paper and the way the magazine feels in your hands is a pleasure also just like reading a hardcover classic novel! Love the work you do, keep it up!
Ellen Zirkelbach –
I am not a hunter but enjoy reading of the connection between human and dog. The articles in Project Upland Magazine makes you feel a part of that relationship. The beautiful photography and interesting articles make this magazine one of a kind experience. Would recommend it to dog lovers, natural and outdoor enthusiasts everywhere.
Gwen Powers –
Project Upland is a publication I really look forward to reading cover to cover when it arrives in the mailbox. The articles are really well written and thoughtful, the photography is impressive, and I really enjoy the recipes. Highly recommend this for a different kind of hunting publication than other magazines on the market.
Russ Bombardieri –

Have been a long time reader of Project Upland online articles and subscriber to their podcast. They produce top notch quality material and have separated themselves from others in the upland media space without question. Can’t wait for my first issue of the magazine!

This has to be my favorite mag of all. Soon as it arrives, I flip through 4-5 times just looking at the picture and art. Simply amazing. Not to say the writing isn’t good, because it is!

I have subscriptions to several hunting and shooting magazines, but this is the one I most look forward to reading. The writing and art direction are top notch, and it does a great job of capturing the essence of what we all love about upland bird hunting and dogs and breaking clays. Highly recommended.
David Bieber –
I found Project Upland through the Hunting Dog Podcast. It is so refreshing to read a hunting magazine where the articles are well written and thought out. I am so tired of the typical cast and blast tripe telling folks that this new gizmo/technique/whatever will turn them into an upland ninja. Thank you for emphasizing conservation, sportsmanship, and quality of experience over a full game bag.
Sharon –
I am only just beginning my journey into upland hunting and have found Project Upland magazine to be an invaluable resource. This was my first subscription and the initial source I relied upon to begin my research and education. I truly appreciate how each issue’s content has deepened my understanding and enhanced my enjoyment of various aspects of hunting, including dog training, firearms, game species and habitat, as well as game preparation and recipes. I especially love the multimedia experience – podcasts and YouTube videos, which complement and support the printed material and create a comprehensive learning experience. Whether you are new or an experienced hunter, this well-researched publication offers valuable insights for everyone.
Jon Ozanne –
Great publication with even better recipes. I switched from the double gun journal to this and have never looked back. It’s nice to have a magazine for bird hunters that is written by equally passionate bird hunters.
David R Chevallier –
This is a great magazine. It’s original appeal was its emphasis on public land bird hunting. I am a public land bird hunter and I tremendously enjoyed the original articles I read. It has broadened its coverage and is now including the gamut of bird hunting. Cannot say enough good things about it.
Carl Wambach –
Project Upland is a sumptuous luxury for upland bird hunters. Most every part is lovingly burnished with coffee table display quality; the paper, the great photo images, the writing quality and the satisfying depth of subjects covered. It’s a publication to savor from the comfort of a properly broken-in leather recliner, with the delicious warmth of a cheery wood stove glowing and your bird hunting partner stretched out on the floor beside you. Perhaps even a sip or two of Pendleton, to clear your mind of distractions. It simply feels special, because the talented people writing articles and the publication staff, embrace the passion we all share for hunting birds, especially with a dog. I love the emphasis on conservation, hunting ethics and the science of our beloved gamebirds. You can be sure I save every issue after a cover-to-cover read. Project upland, the magazine and podcasts, are truly well done.
Joel Searfoss –
I look forward to each magazine every quarter and it’s a great collection of stories and information to bridge the gap to next season.
Jeffrey Richmond (verified owner) –
I am not a big reader, but this publication is spot on. It contains pertinent information to the subject without all the extraneous material. Informative and Easy read. Keeps your attention.
Kirk Wessel –
Even though it can be a bit esoteric at times, this is my favorite upland hunting periodical. Much better than Covey Rise and much more focused on things that matter to bird hunters.
Ben Tollefson –
Great publication for upland enthusiasts with real, relatable stories and something to scratch every itch.
Rodney Willbanks –
I am a late to start upland hunter I have hunted big game all my life(55years now) . My son has got me started bird hunting he has springers. I really enjoy the magazine , web site and the podcasts. I travel for work so the podcasts are great.
Nicole –
I love this magazine for being in print form, high quality photographs, writing and minimal advertising. I actually don’t even own a hunting dog right now nor do I hunt. But I’ve owned hunting breeds as family dogs and really appreciate them.
Timothy Clark –
Simply a superb magazine. Just sorry it took so long for me to discover it. As an unpland bird hunter and shotgun enthusiast it has become my go-to magazine.
Jeff Lorenzini –
The best hunting dog magazine on the market. Covers all topics that are important to hunting dog enthusiasts.
I have one suggestion. Improve the quality of paper and print of the magazine.
Allen Epps –
What a pleasure to have such a great magazine and community based here in our own NH. I look forward to every issue.
Hud Oates –
Project Upland is awesome. It is so well written that I feel smarter just for reading it, yet it is written in a way that is not pretentious. It is a magazine that I anticipate eagerly and savor once I have it in my hand. I share the insights and information with my family and friends.
