    I shoot a .270wsm Sako A7. Every whitetail I have shot with it dropped in its tracks, except a buck this year that walked right up to me at 15 yards while I was answering a text from my wife. It ran 20 yards with a shattered shoulder and then dropped. I am thinking the range was a little too...

    Crispi sizing advice

    Both my brother in law and I wear Crispi Wild Rock GTX boots. We bought our exact foot size and they fit perfectly. Same size as my running shoes - 9. That boot has exceptionally easy break in period - meaning none. Scheels just had them on sale for 25% off which would save you $110.

    Caribou - Optimal Number of Hunters

    My two cents: only do that trip with guys you have hunted with before, and preferably you have hunted with them when everything that could go wrong did go wrong. That is the best way to measure how the group will function and how each guy handles stress and discomfort. I am doing a caribou...

    Who’s out there getting it done?

    2013 Nikon D5100 for upcoming Elk hunt

    I took a D5100 to Tanzania for 14 days. Man was it dusty. The camera and lenses came through just great with a little cleaning at night. They bounced around in the Landcruiser over some god awful tracks and had no ill effects. The advice on the Tokina wide angle is good advice. My father used...

    Arctic Air Unguided Caribou Hunt

    You will going right after us. We are booking for September 2-9, 2019. Sheila has been very helpful during our emails and calls. I have only seen positive references for AAF, which was not the case for some other outfitters we looked at. Hopefully there will be some char and grayling around...

    Arctic Air Unguided Caribou Hunt

    Has anyone used Arctic Air Flying out of Kotzebue, AK for an unguided drop hunt? We are thinking of using them in September 2019 for a four-man unguided caribou hunt in the Brooks Range. Any information or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
