2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
In the prior post you can see the bait bag Sometime in the night I heard the bear trying to get Ricks meat right next to the tipi, we flew out of the tipi yelling at the bear and chased him off, after a bit we were sitting around dosing off, all of a sudden we hear the moose calls that were... -
2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
The next day we made 2 nice tarp covered meat poles and got all of the meat neatly hung. The meat was doing good and temps were perfect to stay in the bush as long as we wanted. We figured we had plenty of time to explore the area and maybe get some good videos and pics………….wrong! About 4 am I... -
2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
Wow, we just get done with one and put another one on the ground. We took pics, deciding if we were going to just gut and quarter it up in the morning since it was in the 20’s at night. We went back to camp and finished cooking the tenderloin with potatoes and onions. The meat was so tender... -
2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
Later the second day, we got back to camp and started cooking some tenderloin for dinner. While cooking dinner, we heard some raking in the clearing behind camp. Rick said he was going to go check it out. Rick was gone for about 2 minutes, I heard him calling then boom!! I turned the burner... -
2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
Back to the hunt, we got the bull quartered and hung the meat bags to cool overnight. We started rowing back to camp around midnight. The night was calm and the full moon was out. We were slowly cruising up the calm slough, when out of nowhere a beaver came up within 2 feet from the raft and... -
2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
I have to say that when I kill things early on a hunt it kind of feels like I missed out on a part of the hunt that I crave. I love the long grueling chess match of hunting. I had been to Alaska twice before, both were long incredible moose hunts loaded with ups and downs, but I did not kill... -

2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
After the morning hunt, we ate lunch on the bank overlooking the marsh across the water. I was looking at OnX satellite pics of the area on my phone and an area stood out to me. I mentioned to Rick that I wanted to check that area out. We pumped up the raft and in an hour we were paddling... -
2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
Opening day had us up early and ready to go. We headed to the clearing near camp and after some discussion decided that Rick was going to get out in the clearing and I would stay back a bit and call. Action started right away, we had bulls and cows going off in at least 3 locations around us... -
2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
As we were setting up camp we noticed that we had a cow feeding across the water, later on a young bull came to court her but she didn’t want anything to do with him and he just chased her off. Later that evening we clear a path through the alders and went behind camp to check out a clearing... -

2021 Nonstop Moose hunt
A little preface and a long story short, 3.5 years ago live2huntelk/Rick and I started talking about elk and moose hunting, he wanted to go a few years down the road and I was kind of wanting to go sooner. I had two Alaskan moose adventures already under my belt and thought I was set up to go... -

Upcoming moose hunt with Renfros….
Give yourself lots of extra time on the backend of the trip to debone your meat and get it ready to transport, we gave it one day and it was a hectic one, people can get bunched up coming out of the field and everyone is running around trying to do the same thing, I ended up deboning on a tarp... -
Upcoming moose hunt with Renfros….
Buy a Black bear tag because if one shows up you will want to take it out because it will make for at least two nights of no sleep lots of extra work trying to keep it out of the meat cache and he might eat one of your tenderloins, rip open your backstrap bag, eat the nut you left on a hind... -

Chamber Vacs and altitude
So I recently purchased a ARY VP210, after using it a bit I noticed that the pressure gauge wouldn't go below 0.08 which is right where the green starts on the gauge, the bottom of gauge is 0.1, all the videos I watched showed the gauge going way down into the green. I called the techs from ARY...- JPD350

WTS 12"x12" chamber vac bags
12"x12"x 3 mill chamber vac bags, I have two 500 packs. I'll take 50.00 plus the cost of shipping, whatever shipper you want, the bags cost 95.00 so this is a great deal. I did open one pack but as soon as I did I realized they were to big for my chamber vac which is why I am selling them...- JPD350

First reaction…. 50” plus?
If I am wondering if its 49 or 50 I am passing or counting brow tines. The hard bulls to judge are the big crab claw brow tines, they can be impressive bulls even at 50ish inches, it's hard to pass on them but the first two trips to Alaska I had to pass and go home empty. Lol the 3rd time was an...
