I’m shooting a 308 with 180 grain bullets. My buddies this year had to shoot their 53 inch bull with 6 rounds from a .300winmag before it finally went down
Thanks everyone. The total pack out ended up being just over 5 miles one way with the last 2 miles about 1200 ft uphill. Trying to go back in this weekend to help fill one or two more tags for my other friends
here are some other photos from my earlier scouting sessions
Well 2020 hunting season is a wrap for me. Was very fortunate and lucky to grab one of the Arctic Valley moose tags this year for an any bull. For anyone not familiar it is a non motorized access area and each entry point has its challenges but your looking at an average of 4-6 mile pack out...
Anyone else get this tag? Our hunting group got lucky and drew 5 tags out of 7 people. My first year going into arctic valley but they did this hunt last year and were successful. I’ll see anyone else in there that was quick on the draw this morning. My legs and knees are already hurting...
yeah I went into the Palmer Office yesterday afternoon. As soon as I left I got called back into work 🤣. Congrats on y’alls ram too that was a nice one
Only had a weekend to get it done and the stars aligned perfectly. Definitely got off easy with this ram bring my first hunt. Left camp around 9am back in camp by 11pm, 13 mile round trip and 2500 foot elevation climb. Ended up shooting him at 320 yards
fish and game aged him at 5 with a 36...
It was a fun hunt for sure. He measured 84 inches from paw to paw and 72 from nose to tail.
Here’s a little write up I did on Facebook
So yesterday we took a little wheeling trip with the intention to do some glassing and possibly shoot a bear. It was a beautiful day to be outside and enjoying...
So finally took my very first bear and very first bow kill as well with this hunt. Took a shot at 45 yards, had to climb over 600 feet vertical to get to him and took 2 hours to get within range.
His skull pretty much got banged up he ended up falling end over end down the rock chute about 500...
