    International hunt trip insurance… suggestions?

    Did a search but didn’t find a whole lot. Anybody have any experience. I’ll be out of my deposit I think already (25% of hunt), in think 50% by 6 months out, and then paid in full 90 days out. Airfare likely $1,500. Be nice to cover this. Booked through WTA. They promote Global Rescue...

    Eberlestock dual purpose….

    Who’d have guessed? WAY better than some $100 dedicated child carrier she bought. And yeah, I’m rocking the dad shoes like nobody’s business!

    European CIC score to SCI points

    So European stag are scored and priced either by weight of skull and antlers, or by CIC score. I’m trying to figure out about what various CIC scores would equate to in SCI points. I’m looking at 180 and 190 CIC stag. Any help would be appreciated.

    Red stag options….

    I’m kinda eyeballing a 2025 hunt in Hungary. Looks “affordable” and I like idea of native herd. Antlers aren’t NZ, but neither is cost. Looks like about 7.5. / 10 trophy potential, and maybe 5/10 price. Seems like a good compromise, and wife / kid and I’m could do Budapest and maybe Vienna...

    Stranded after fly-in hunt prior to winter…

    So I was laying in bed last night with my second round of Covid and I got to thinking about my recent trip to Alaska. We flew in and were dropped off in early Sept. I got to thinking, what in the world would we do if all backup extraction plans failed, communication wasn’t answered, batteries...

    Alaska fishing recommendations…

    Did a moose hunt last fall out of Dillingham. It was a drop hunt and self guided. My first trip to Alaska, and while I’d love to don that again, my wife wouldn’t support it. We are currently trying to make plans for next years spring break and one of the options is a cruise. I have very...

    Don’t care….

    Fun hunt. The last antlerd critter I saw was early Sept in Alaska. He was neither legal, nor close enough. So double not possible. This poor young twerp paid the price.

    Good Florida buck

    Alaska go-back…

    She thought I’d be done. Unfortunately for her I did not find one. It will be years before I can go again. Two months after everything, I only remember the good parts. Much like most big trips. I need more. What’s any luck I’ll find time to go do some boat work and get it prepped for a...

    At what point are you guiding without a license?

    I’m sure this varies State to state, and most scenarios are easily categorized. In my mind there’s some grey area, though. Two scenarios come to mind. 1. Hunt trip swap. 2. Friend of a friend, or somebody not immediately we’ll known, who agrees to mentor / participate / join for a hunt...

    Spotting scope pics low light… pretty cool.

    Messed around with my new Athlon Ares15-45x, Sirui tripod, Sirui Va-5 head and Phone Skope kit yesterday. Pretty damn nice set up for $800. About to order a remote for hands free picture taking. Impossible to get super clear pic because of vibration when touching phone. Still not bad...
