    Lets talk sheep scopes.

    no matter which scope you choose, wether it’s marketed for pounding tent stakes into the ground or not. i would recommend bringing the necessary tools to tighten scope rings and bases. Also have adequate ammo for potentially having to re-zero your rifle in the field. as mentioned above sheep...

    Camera for Dall Sheep hunt

    get one small enough to fit in your jacket, or a hip belt on your pack. i bought one that is too big and had to store it in my pack, very rarely did i take it out.

    Pack size for Kodiak lodge/boat hunt? And other ?

    New stone glacier pack?

    word of caution for some people that might make the same mistake as me. the load cell “dry bag” allows blood to leach out. as kurt mentioned the new pack has a built in bag with drains to prevent soaking other gear. this year sheep hunting i boned out a sheep put it into the load cell dry bag...

    Spotting scope or new binos?

    depends what sort of hunting your doing. For me hunting in areas where you have to count brow tines or judge full curl rams a spotter is a must.i hunted with a pair of vortex diamondbacks for years and had no issues spotting game. i’d stay with the mavens and pick up a spotter

    kowa 773 protective cover

    what’s everyone using for a cover on their kowa spotters?? The one kowa makes seems kinda bulky and dysfunctional although it’s tough to tell looking at pics online.

    Calling out all Alaska residents to support RHAK

    I am a member of rhak and believe in what they stand for mostly. i’m happy 207 is a law and hope it stays in effect. The reasoning for eliminating 207 is silly, they state that it’s unenforceable so if that’s the case why does it matter. i would be really upset to see the air show while sheep...

    Calling out all Alaska residents to support RHAK

    Rhak is reasonable, any resident that loves to hunt and wants to see there children be able to have the same opportunities that we do should support them and there cause. having a voice for residents that carries some weight is a must for the future. The board of game is ran by guides and has...
