    What time did you shoot your Alaskan Moose?

    All have been 5 pm or later, would love to get them in the morning. Working through the night to get them broke down and bagged is not a fun task.

    Walk-in Dall Sheep List

    This year will be my first sheep hunt and I'm walking in as well but going solo, so take what I add with a grain of salt... -swap the kifaru bag for a much lighter down bag/quilt -get a lighter pad, pretty easy to shave off almost a half pound just from that. Are you using the rectangle xtherm...

    What size did you order and how is the fit? and what is your height/weight/build? Been wanting to get the set but just can't decide on which size.

    Impressed with Kings Camo

    I wouldn't hesitate to wear them where I'm hunting in situations of 20 yards and closer. The preacher's IMO are similar to a soft shell pant with their weight but and similar DWR outer but without the noisy outer shell. Hopefully that makes sense.

    Impressed with Kings Camo

    This waist thing was/is my experience. I went up a waist size so that they weren't skinny jean tight on my thighs. I feel naked without a belt no matter what I'm wearing so having to wear a belt to sort of cinch the waist down isn't a huge factor for me but is something to note for anybody who...

    It amazes me that ol' Craig even tries to pretend that ram was even close to legal.

    Sierra Game King Bullets

    Shoot SGK soft points in my .223 to my .338. Been a fan of them for a very long time. My grandfather used them for years, my dad has, and so have I. Countless game has fallen to them with zero complaints. Only rifle I don’t shoot the GK’s out of is my 7mm but that’s only cause I shoot a high BC...

    UL fuel efficient cook system

    Msr windburner is the only other one I have experience with. I would say it’s more efficient, but I have put a timer to the petrel and I don’t know that I will. For the price and the weight, it’s about as good as you’re going to get without making a custom pot IMO unless you find one of the...

    UL fuel efficient cook system

    Listening to some podcasts of ultralight backpackers, many of them recommended the msr pocket rocket deluxe and soto wind master as the most efficient stoves for use away from a controlled environment. I was hoping they would get into pots but never did. Currently I use a pocket rocket deluxe...

    Haul Road gear exchange?

    I'll be going through Fairbanks on my way there around that time frame and if nobody takes you up on it I might be interested in buying a few things from you depending on what you have.

    NM landowner tags under fire

    Do away with UW LO tags, move those tags over to the general pool. Property w/ LO tags make similar to the UW tags in where public can access the property whether that's for a small fee or tax incentive. I have mixed emotions on outfitters being able to purchase LO tags. Not just NM but all...

    Saw recommendations

    Sven saw. Absolutely love the couple that I have. IMO better than silky and Wyoming saws. Lighter, more compact when folded, and longer blades allowing for longer strokes. They’re a small company so not very popular. https://svensaw.com/
