    Arctic Red River Feedback Wanted

    Looking at a 15 day Dall/Caribou hunt with Tavis. I'm looking for the most difficult physical hunt I can find, and this appears to fit the bill. Had a great chat with Tavis. He answered all my questions, but I'd like to hear from those who have hunted with them. No hearsay wanted, actual...

    anyone pay attention to their resting heart rate?

    Think Peter Attia's marginal decade. How do you want to live your last years?

    anyone pay attention to their resting heart rate?

    I think I misunderstood you, assuming your point of view was a negative correlation between exercise and heart health/longevity. Due to that assumed misunderstanding, I asked for the data. I've read the posted article some time ago, and agree its a good primer.

    anyone pay attention to their resting heart rate?

    Can you offer some more detail here? I'm genuinely curious of the data you reference on endurance training and long term health.

    anyone pay attention to their resting heart rate?

    I like the combination of RHR and HRV. Those two together are a very good indicator of your heart's health.

    anyone pay attention to their resting heart rate?

    Agree, more margin of error in the Garmin, but I have found it to not be that far off. It's within a couple bpm of my 8 sleep which is very accurate.

    Cat food, a couple marshmallows with some liquid vanilla on top.

    Nahanni Butte (Lancaster) Contact

    Been trying to get a hold of Jim or Clay for a couple months. I understand they're in hunting season, but assumed they'd be wrapped up for the season by now. Anyone else having trouble getting ahold of them? I've tried email, call, and text.

    Muzzle brake or not?

    Braked or suppressed is good for practice also. My .300WM is braked, and I can easily shoot 20 practice rounds without any discomfort.

    Anyone else that can’t road run?

    I disagree, you won't get more aerobic benefit from rucking. It's great for you, but it won't match running. I run, ruck, and lift and you can't match running (or swimming) for aerobic benefit. Running tears up your body if you aren't disciplined about strength training, mobility, or just...

    Anyone else that can’t road run?

    I agree with everything you said, but understand you are an exception. That's an exceptionally high mileage amount, road or trails. I'm guessing if you had a running analysis done, your biomechanics would be nearly flawless. Biomechanics play a huge role in injury prevention especially at...

    AK Moose Success

    I had a great 7-day hunt in Alaska and was very fortunate to harvest this incredible bull. The bulls we hunted were not very cooperative to calls, but we were able to locate this one and put on a stalk for a 150-yard shot. I'm also really happy with bullet performance. I used a 195gr...

    I ended up taking it to Knights Taxidermy in Anchorage and they are going to ship it back for me.

    Negative. It’s a booner and I want to get it scored.

    Flying moose rack RAVN/Delta

    So I'm going to need to send this air or ground freight. The antlers are too big for checked bag on both airlines. I called Alaska Air and they won't ship it air cargo because I'm not a known shipper. I really don't want to go Fedex because of past bad experiences. There has to be more...

    Flying moose rack RAVN/Delta

    Got a nice rack I want to fly home with me and heard its possible to fly antlers as a checked bag. I will call both airlines, but in the meantime checking to see if anyone has done this. If so, what worked best and are there any pitfalls to avoid? Thank you.
