    Federal Proposals to CLOSE Alaska's GMU 23 and 26A to caribou and moose hunters

    I spoke with The public relations woman just now. She said the crux of their analysis is to Support the closure, but only towards moose. They are recommending Caribou stays open. That does not mean the board will heed their advice. Pages 70-74 are of interest...

    Mutant Turkey Foot

    Alright my Turkey Aficionados, what could cause a turkey to have feet like this?

I called this Tom in yesterday morning in PA (20lb, 9"...

    What will Meateater buy next??

    Well, i got a sweet deal on a Sitka Jetstream jacket in moss that works just as well to run errands around town in fall/spring as it does in the backcountry on hunts. I also wear that jacket trout and steelhead fishing. I think it’s more foolish to spend 200-300 on a jacket you never wear...

    Scopecoat vs. flip-up caps

    Been thinking about the same myself. I always used flip caps, specifically for rain not for protecting the scope. Was thinking of switching to the cover bc i have been dialing elevation and don’t have a zero stop, but have it marked on the dial where my zero is. Figured the cover would prevent...
