    Cougar calling Sequence?

    I've called in way more with cougar vocalizations than anything else. It seems to me that when they think they're coming to another cat, they don't sneak as much. My problem has been getting a shot at them when they come. Learn how to shoot opposite handed! They seem to circle above and to...

    Deer calls for blacktail

    Yep, you can call in a buck with one, especially during the rut. I use a couple different turkey diaphrams, an old Weems closed reed Cottontail rabbit call, and the one that actually works the best is an open reed "fawn in distress" bear call that I bought from "Bearman Rick" (R&R game calls)...

    Deer calls for blacktail

    Blacktail calls work very well, sometimes far TOO well. It's what we used for the 12 years I lived on Kodiak, and I use them in S.W. Washington as well. However, just know that a few doe bleats, followed by a 5 minute set of fawn in distress, will call every bear, and cougar that hears it as...

    .17 Fireball for coyotes

    I use a 17 Remington, but a buddy of mine uses a 17 FB. My next one will be a Fireball. Both are great if your saving pelts, but his Fireball is way easier on barrels. Thinking about a 20 Practical for an AR though, as I won't be so worried about losing brass.

    An encounter that was scary

    Wow! With a bow even! I've never been in the middle of a pack, but my son was several years ago when hunting in AK. He said it was darn spooky to have them howling all around him. He only got one. Every hunter in Washington should be thanking you! I know I am. GREAT JOB!

    Grinders

    We burned up one cheap flea-bay Chinese grinder, and two Cabela's grinders. I found an OLD grinder on Craigslist, and I think it will grind anything that will fit down the throat. I've found there seems to be a relationship between the weight of a grinder, (or cuber, or slicer), and how good...

    Kodiak blacktail

    I lived on "The Rock" for 12 years. Prepare for every type of weather, and you will still be surprised. Also, I've seen big male bears out and about in the dead of winter.

    Sold Filson Double Mackinaw Coat

    I don't know what their products are like now, but I still have a pair of tin pants that I logged in for many, many years. I hunt them still. Also, I sent my Grandpa's coat into them in the mid 80's, and had them re-sew the button holes, and fix some other things. They said as near as they...

    KODIAK BLACKTAILS rain gear

    I was a commercial fisherman on Kodiak, and out west, for 12 years. We hunted whenever we could. We wore Grundens and xtratuffs, with wool underneath. The new raingear hadn't been invented yet. All the new fancy stuff is way lighter, easier to walk in, and WAY more expensive. I now live...

    Call Your Shot - Yes Or No!

    Nope! My Dad took that shot about 15 years ago from 12 yards, arrow went between the lungs, and got the liver, so we got the animal. We got lucky!!! I've passed on that shot twice since then.

    Elk Hunting Rifle Combos - Tikkas Go or No Go?

    A wise man, (my Dad), once told me, "when it comes to hunting rifles...you pack 'em a lot more than you shoot 'em." I bought him a Tikka T3 Lite in 7mm, and it shot a one hole, .3" group right out of the box with my hand loads! I was so impressed, that I bought one for myself in 300WM, and one...
