    Ol one-eye

    This dude was completely missing his left eyeball and had multiple puncture wounds in his neck. Apparently, he fought hard for the ladies. One 250 yard shot with the 300 WSM and 180 Barnes TSX took out the lungs and top of his heart. The bullet had the typical 4 petals peeled back and was...

    Bou down

    We had a good caribou hunt and tagged the largest bull that we saw. We often see larger bulls later in the season but we will be hunting in moose country at that time. Good luck!

    spray paint to camo a jacket?

    Has anyone taken say a black synthetic jacket and spray painted some camo designs on it with spray paint to break up the solid color? Or any other color jacket? I was thinking of buying a non-hunting brand, non-camo, realtively cheap puffy jacket and spray painting some camo color on it. I was...

    Tract, SWFA, Nightforce, or ?

    I've been lurking and searching threads for scope info. for a while now. I would like to upgrade my Leupold VXII 2-7x33 with something with more magnification and a turret for dialing. I dial with my Leupold by removing the dust cap and using the ege of it to dial elevation. It works, but it's...

    Kuiu Guide pants, 32 waist, Verde

    Kuiu guide pants, 32" waist, color verde. These were worn one time and washed one time so they are virtually brand new. They're awesome pants for fall hunting in AK. They're a size too big for me so I need to sell them and get a 30" waist. $130 or trade for size 30 in equal condition. Located in...

    Sheep hunt pics

    It appears that we'll be eating sheep tag soup this year :( We got on 2 groups of rams that had 1 ram in each group that was too close to call to pull the trigger. I think one was legal, but we didn't get closer than ~500 yards and I can't count rings that well at that distance. Oh well, we...

    Samsung cell phone for sheep hunt?

    I'm debating on whether to just take my Samsung S5 phone as my camera on an upcoming sheep hunt. It seems like the pics are as good or better than my point n shoot camera and I have a phone scope adapter that I'll take for digiscoping. One concern is battery life. I don't have a good idea how...

    wolverine

    My Moultrie has been up in the high country since since last March and I just picked it up yesterday. It's pointed at a leaning pole set that I use for trapping so there's lots of good smells and old moose bones to attract critters. I'm pretty excited about the pics that I got.

    2015 sheep hunt

    In late August I assisted a friend harvest his first Dall sheep. He had drawn the early Delta tag (story later - maybe). After doing so, I got the bug to go hunting for myself - so I did. Day 1: low clouds, drizzle, can't see the peaks - ugh. Day 2: Stayed in tent until 2 p.m. - ugh. I climbed...

    digiscoping with a point and shoot and Swaro 65 HD

    So I broke down and bought a used Swaro 65mm HD spotter recently. I've taken pics with a typical point and shoot digital camera through my Luepold spotter in previous years. I simply held the camera to the ocular lens and played the game of trying to get a decent picture. So, are there any...

    Sirui tripod - which one?

    I recently purchased a Swazi 65mm spotting scope and need a tripod for it. It will mainly be used for backpack hunting so weight is a concern. I've narrowed my choices down to a Sirui T-025x (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/917559-REG/sirui_bsrt025x_t_025x_carbon_fiber_tripod.html) or...
