    Chugach sheep hunt 24

    With that tag I am going to tell you something that you might think that I am crazy but it is what I would do. I would go visit Dan Montgomery and take out a loan for 10K for doing all of the flying and support for your hunt. You might think that this is out of line but it would be worth it for...

    Alaska Should Transplant Sheep Again?

    A couple of notable things. Dall's sheep populations are on the decline in alaska. Mt. Goat populations are fantastic and this may be the golden era for Goat hunting. I would love for the introduction of a couple of things. 1) Reintroduce Rocky Mountain Elk to areas in 13, 12, 20 and 21. There...

    Mountain Goat Books?

    Snyder's book of big game hunting by Col. Harry Snyder is good. Hunting Alaska by Roy Chandler is also good and you can find it for a good price right now. That will change. Handloggers by W.H. Jackson also has some interesting stories.

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    The Federal Government violates our state constitution all of the time. They have seized a tremendous amount of the land and seek to eliminate hunting on all federal lands. BLMs might come at me bro but the truth is that Alaska got a raw deal when the feds pushed through the Mineral Mining Act...

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    Just remember that many times out of staters are competing for tags with out of staters and they get drawn for delta or Tok sheep and Alaskans fail to draw in their whole lifetimes because we are competing against all of the other Alaskans. We call it the Steve rinella effect. Steve has drawn...

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    So you guys say get a harvest tag and go to an open area but no. Most transporters will not drop you in to areas that the guides claim this is particularly true in Wrangells, Brooks and Alaska ranges. You basically have to get pp license and cub with off runway experience to compete. A big bunch...

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    I pulled dm920 this year. 20 tags and 9 went to out of staters. Look at Kodiak Brown Bear draw percentages and you’ll see what I mean. Equal number of bear tags but a lot better chances for out of staters. There were 9 tags for ds165 and three went to out of staters. I think more out of staters...

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    Before people jump on the bandwagon for more nr drawing opportunities, I’d like to remind you that we are forecasted to have five or six days of -35f next week.

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    Many of our best drawing hunts have shifted to give out of staters more than equal to resident draw rates. Out of staters are getting 50% or more of tags in several areas. This is going to have a reckoning.

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    So I want to hunt ds165 in Alaska than I better move to the l48 and hire an out of state guide. It’s easier for an out of stater to get a drawing tag than resident.

    Choosing where to live in Alaska

    Get a condo in Anchorage and make your real permanent home out in Silver Springs or Seward. Work the three day 12 hour shift and live away from Anchorage.
