    Kifaru moving to WY

    Hey, that's probably what all the politicians in Virginia, I mean DC think. That's cool with me. Maybe we should just cut out part of the state and disown the toothless relatives, could we call it West Wyoming? (all in fun amigo. just messing around)

    Kifaru moving to WY

    Outside of Cheyenne. I still work in Ft. Collins, and am willing to add a bit of time to my commute to give the kids a better childhood. The place we bought would have been almost double the price on the CO side of the border. Edit to add a reply to Desk Jockey: I've been in CO for over 25...

    kifaru sale

    I do it when it’s under 2 miles or so. My dogs love them. Sometimes I cut them off and still pack them out.

    Kifaru moving to WY

    I’m doing it next month. Tired of three or four cities ruining this beautiful state. Sucks to have to learn a whole new state to hunt, but what the hell, can’t succeed if you don’t try. I can finally buy a magazine for my Glock 17.

    Your first shoulder mount

    I don't have a pic of the mount handy, but this was my biggest deer of my first deer hunting trip. Kodiak Island, 1993. My uncle mounted him for me. I was in high school, went with a friend of my stepdad, did most of the hunting solo. Learned a ton, packed him out with the friend's 15 year old...

    Judging moose tips

    I agree, the bald head makes them look bigger, and my "fisherman's pose" probably doesn't help. I think the thing that hurt him was how cupped his paddles were forward. If they laid out flat, he would have gained a lot

    Judging moose tips

    He barely beat 51" wide. I was pretty surprised when I measured, but am really glad he had the brow tines to be legal either way. We passed on a couple of smaller bulls in the trip, and I'm super glad we did! I don't think I would have shot this guy without the brow tines. If you notice in the...

    Judging moose tips

    I spent all last year asking people posting moose pictures what the spread was. I watched every film and read every story I could get my hands on. When I shot my moose I guessed him at 55", but knew he was good to go when I counted brow tines. I read somewhere that the paddles going straight...

    Which chronograph should I buy?

    Big time. Almost 5 inches for me on a 6.5, about 3" on a .340 Wby at 100 yards I got rid of mine and got a labradar

    Caribou Rifle and Defense Option

    I'm a Gen x-er, but you should probably add me to that list. I was born and raised in AK, and much prefer a pistol over a rifle when I'm fishing or packing meat. I don't carry a pistol with my rifle, but like having a firearm with me in bear country. To the OP, I'd rather shoot a caribou...

    Are they good eating ?

    I’m a fan. I rank it up there with elk if taken care of in the field. Moose is better, but I would take caribou over mule deer.

    H1000 - price gouging!

    I bought 8 pounds of it for $310 plus tax last week at the local gun shop. I know the manager and spend lots of money there. He called me when it came in. Short of building relationships like that, watch ammo seek and set alerts with the big reloading online shops. Don’t feed the gougers

    Alaska hunt logistics

    I flew last year with AK Air. Their policy is one set of antlers per flight, first come, first served. Others may or may not make it depending on space. We got there 2 hours before they opened. We were first. No biggie. We heard griping from about a dozen other guys though.

    Nightforce NXS

    I have the MOAR-T. Mine is a SFP, so I like that the target reticle is still a reasonable size when I zoom in on tiny targets. It is illuminated so the fine lines are easy to see in dim lighting.
