    InReach & AT&T Incompatible?

    Sound like to me the issue is AT&T. If it’s always that provider that has issue they’re the issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ramcats

    I’m sure they would be fine. Just an FYI I got a complete passthrough on a moose I took a few years ago with the Exodus at 74 yards for what it’s worth. Last year I used the Kudupoint broadhead on my moose. Was able to get two arrows in him. Both complete passthroughs. Sent from my iPhone...

    Broadheads for Moose

    I’ve taken one with a QAD Exodus and another with a Kudupoint. Both were complete passthroughs. Any good quality fixed blade will work really. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anyone have a Canadian moose hunt booked for 2020

    As a BC resident I will say plan a different hunt. Even for residents areas are being restrict. The Tahltan nation in northwestern BC has restricted travel residents only and Haida Gwaii is restricting access to island residents only too. Canada/US border restrictions are getting more...

    Choosing an Outfitter

    There are no shortage of big bears up there. I would have shot that one but I had already tagged out on two bears that day. Both making BC book (over 19”) and just shy of B&C. Only thing we don’t have there are colour phase bears. All of them are jet black other than the white chevron on the...

    Choosing an Outfitter

    Pacific Rim Outfitters on Vancouver Island. It’s Shockey’s outfit. I haven’t hunted with them but I hunt the same area. Always see lots of bears. Also chance at a wolf, there are cougars up there too. These are just from last year up there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Brown bear rug or mount?

    Why not do a half mount? Not as much wall space as a rug, more options for wall placement than full body on the ground. And price wise is less. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    B&C line for Sitka vs Columbia......agreement?

    All blacktails are coastal. Sitkas only live from mid coast of BC up through into AK. Difference in Columbias from state to state just has to do with genetics and habitat. Same reason why a northern BC whitetail can weigh well over 300 pounds and a southern whitetail might only weigh 150...

    B&C line for Sitka vs Columbia......agreement?

    All blacktails in the lower 48 are Columbia blacktails. Sitkas have a very short range. The variation has more to do with interbreeding with mule deer. I live in British Columbia and most of our blacktails are Columbias. The lowest place Sitkas come are essentially Haida Gwaii and that distance...

    Hadia gwaii?

    Unless you have a blood relative that lives in BC then you could get a license that way. You’d still have to hunt with them but then you wouldn’t need a guide at least Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hadia gwaii?

    You would need a guide then, just FYI. It is a target rich environment though. And season opens at the beginning of June which is cool Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gutting question

    It’ll work fine just pull and make small cuts. I’ve always used that method even on moose (bigger animal is actually easier because you can reach into the pelvic girdle easier). If you split the pelvis it’s even easier to get in Theresa’s pull everything out in one shot.
