After we flew into camp we had about 30 minutes of daylight and I actually glassed a nice bull about 2 miles from camp. Rutting good. Should be a good Camp...

    Newfoundland moose hunt

    Just about my turn at this. They have been killing all pretty big bulls at the camp I'm heading to and the outfitter said they saw some giants this week the bowhunters in there just couldn't get close enough to. Customs in Toronto went smooth and everyone was friendly. 1 more flight to go and a...

    Ruffed Grouse as a Newbie

    Also take into account you average about 1.5 seconds from the bird flushing until it's gone to take your shot. You really don't aim. Naturally point the shotgun and let it rip. Use open chokes. If you have a flushing dog an IC would he best bet. I have a 9 year old GWP that was primarily a...

    Ruffed Grouse as a Newbie

    Hunt young cut 5-15 year aspen stands. If you walk in a cut and think your hat wouldnt come back down if you threw it in the air your in the right stuff. Hunt edges. Have realistic expectations. For every maybe 20 birds flushed you may connect on 1. They are tough birds and make you work. They...

    Canadian firearms Dec form

    Just an FYI for anyone traveling up to Canada this fall. They just updated the non resident firearms Dec form. You now need to declare ammo, magazines not inserted into your firearm and gun parts not attached. I knew they changed to need to declare ammo and have been keeping an eye out. Get the...

    moisture protection in gun safe ?

    I started off with a bead in mine. Way too bog of a pain in the ass. Went to electric rod and don't worry about it. I also take out each gun and give them a cleaning regardless of use each winter after most seasons are closed Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk

    outfitter services

    No experience with them. I get what they do. I have never used a booking agent and probably never will. Do your own research to vet the outfitters and you will be fine. Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk

    Newfoundland moose hunt

    I never put TSA locks in my rifle cases. Only master locks. With that said the last 3 times I have flown with rifles I have been called all the way to the front of the airport on my layover for TSA to "lookover" my firearm a second time. No one has been able to give me a reason why for this...
