    Kimber Adirondack

    Kimber isn't making the Adirondack anymore unfortunately. I wanted one and spent a long time looking about a year ago and finally gave up and went with another Mtn. Ascent. Used market will be the only option and they don't seem to pop up very often.

    Sad to hear. Legendary fellow to say the least.

    Alaska Should Transplant Sheep Again?

    True. And most of the guides that operate there are trying really hard to keep that quiet.

    Pretty intense hunt…. Video

    Super legit hunt, especially for a couple of warm weather dudes from Hawaii. Despite the easy living climate down there, Hawaii kicks out some certified badasses. I sent that video to my BIL who lives in Hawaii and who is just getting into bow hunting for Axis down there. Judging by the...

    Talkeetna caribou hunt 2024

    Congrats on 590. I've been applying for that tag for 15+ years now and have yet to draw it despite all sorts of friends and family drawing it all around me. Fly with Mike Meekins if you can. He is the most experienced pilot in that area by far and will know where the caribou are and where...

    Hunting tripod for shooting with the possibility to swap the head for a camera rest?

    Many (most) tripods work with quick release plates/adapters. I mounted a QR plate on a shooting V rest to be able to quickly swap between the rest and my optic of choice on the tripod. It works with spotting scopes, bino adapters, iPhone selfie holders etc. anything that is compatible with...

    Hunt Raffle Impacts

    I think another hang up that is often encountered in supporting specific causes is that many fish and game agencies can't direct donated funds to a specific cause. The agencies, for the most part, can take the money, but they can't guarantee that WSF funds go to and only to sheep for example...

    Sheep Euro Mount

    I've used wood glue with a handful of sheep skulls with good results. It is water soluble so if you need to remove the horns in the future for repairs, cleaning, etc. that can be accomplished. I've had a couple of the skulls knocked around pretty good and the wood glue has held just fine...

    Swaro Ats 65 vs 80 for guiding

    This. Is anyone using the new Swaro ATC 17-40x56? At 34.2oz it is pretty svelte compared to most others in that mag range. I sure wish they made it compatible with the 60x eye piece though.

    Hunt Raffle Impacts

    Apologies. I did speak pretty generally and cast a pretty wide net with my comment. That having been said, not every single organization is as transparent as the Idaho Wild Sheep example posted above. Several "conservation" groups that claim to work on behalf of Alaska fish and wildlife put...

    Hunt Raffle Impacts

    That is what they say, but often it is hard to find any on the ground meaningful activities that those raffle dollars have funded.

    Hunt Raffle Impacts

    I'd like to know what is actually getting done with the profits from these things that are supposed to go back into conservation.

    New Tundra owners — Tow hooks?

    Who makes that bumper? I really like the look and low profile. Most of the aftermarket Tundra bumper are big and bulky and not very aesthetically pleasing.
