Field & Stream
Field & Stream (F&S for short) is an American magazine focusing on sport hunting, recreational fishing and other outdoor activities. It was a print publication between 1895 and 2015, and became an online-only publication in 2020.
After the magazine's purchase in 2024 by country musicians Morgan Wallen and Eric Church, the magazine later returned as print publication.
Founded in 1895 by John P. Burkhard and Henry Wellington Wack, Field & Stream at one time had more than one million print subscribers, with a significant online following as well. Depending on the season and the availability of information, the magazine may offer advices on catching bass, trout, birds, deer and hunting equipments such as rifles and shotguns. The magazine also offers tricks, survival tips, random facts and wild game recipes. In addition to those departments, each issue contains longform featured articles, for which it is renowned.
Warren H. Miller was its managing editor from 1910 to 1918. The magazine absorbed its chief competitor, Forest and Stream, in 1930. Henry Holt and Company purchased the magazine in 1951. The company published the magazine on a monthly basis in New York City. Holt eventually ended up being owned by CBS, which sold their magazines in a leveraged buyout, led by division head Peter Diamandis, to the Times-Mirror Company, which in turn sold their magazines to Time Inc. in 2001. Sid Evans was brought in to replace Slaton White, who remained on staff, as editor.
Field & Stream was one of 18 magazines sold to Bonnier Group in February 2007. That year, after a five-year tenure that had an editorial revival of the publication, Evans left to helm Garden & Gun magazine, in Charleston, South Carolina, along with then editor of Saltwater Sportsman and former F&S features editor David DiBenedetto.
Anthony Licata was then appointed editor, and under Licata, the magazine won two coveted National Magazine Awards for General Excellence, in 2009 and 2014.
The magazine's current contributors include C. J. Chivers, Jonathan Miles, Bill Heavey, T. Edward Nickens, Phil Bourjaily, Rick Bass, J.R. Sullivan, Keith McCafferty, and David E. Petzal. Notable past contributors include Robert Ruark, Ted Trueblood, Ed Zern, Nick Lyons, Tom Kelly, Thomas McGuane, Gene Hill, and Jim Harrison.
The magazine is currently edited by Colin Kearns, who was promoted from senior deputy editor in the end of 2016.
