    Best Alaska Moose Outfitter?

    I think a lot of it depends on what type of hunt/adventure you're looking for. Horseback, basecamp and spike out, ridge top, float ect. If you're just looking to get a great bull I'd look into Gods aviation. If I had the money I'd go there, great success rates on great bulls. If you're...

    Compare & Contrast Exo K4 5000 and Stone Glacier Sky 5900

    I switched last year from the stone 7900 to the K4 and I loved my stone I just got the itch to try something new. I don't think you can go wrong either way but the ease of use with everything on the exo was a huge seller for me. Taking the bag on and off the frame, nalgene holder and comfort...

    Renfro/ 60" club

    3rd season tactics

    I'm going to venture outside of my home state and try a 3rd season tag next year. As a disclaimer I have read through I believe all the previous posts about 3rd season elk and I am not looking for units or anything specific. The area I am looking at is between 10K and 12K for elevation and all...

    hello! I'm going to be headed up to 471 for a 3rd rifle elk hunt next year. I know it isn't early season but wondering if you had any tips or tricks. I don't live near the area either so pre scouting isn't an option for me. Anything you'd be willing to share would be awesome but if not, no...

    liver shot with a rifle

    I'm in mountain terrain, 9,000 ft. mostly quake and pine. I know a lot of people with dogs they use for bear and cats. Would they be able to track for blood?

    liver shot with a rifle

    Nobody likes to admit when they make a bad shot but sadly it happens. I need some help here. I took a quartering to shot 2 days ago on a bull with a 300 win mag. it was a tight shot but I believe the bull stepped as I squeezed the trigger and it hit a little far back. the blood trail was...

    What should a guided hunt be?

    This is a great question and topic in my opinion. I just got back from an alberta archery moose hunt and it was my first guided hunt as well. Similar to you I'm an avid hunter and regardless of the weapon I typically harvest elk and deer on OTC tags in low success units, I mention that because...

    swacker broad heads LRP

    with a mechanical hitting anything other than hide is a concern just due to the already lack of penetration I would assume but like I said, I've always used fixed heads QAD's. Thats a valid point about the ferrule breaking with the aluminum build

    swacker broad heads LRP

    Awesome video! I assume he's in a league of his own with his draw weight, length and arrow speed if I had to guess but thats impressive to take a bear like that with a mechanical.

    swacker broad heads LRP

    I agree with the premium for the set up but I love the concept of passing the rips before deployment. I always hear good things about sevr and the theory of going around the rib is nice as well. I'll have to look at the thorn GI. I love fixed heads but a bigger cut is starting to be more...

    swacker broad heads LRP

    Anyone see this video lately? I'm a fixed head kind of guy but Im intrigued with these because it eliminates the fear of hitting a rib. I'd love to hear other opinions on this head

    canada bow hunt for moose review

    I always love reading other people's post about how their moose hunts went and even though mine didn't end with a kill it was to this day my favorite hunt! I booked a hunt with Valid outfitters based out of alberta CA, we were back country bow hunting along the mcleod river for 10 days. We...

    hunting along a river on foot for moose

    Sounds like great advice thank you! we'll be hunting from the 30-8. I hope the rut will be in full swing by then, the outfitter said that the moose have just started coming down off the mountain so hopefully each day brings a little more opportunity

    hunting along a river on foot for moose

    I'm headed to alberta for an archery moose hunt in 2 weeks and the strategy is to walk a river system looking for moose. I've done 2 DIY drop camp hunts in AK and that's just sitting ridge tops calling and glassing so this type of hunt will be a first for me. I do a lot of archery elk hunting...
