    Mountain goat now, or sheep later.. maybe never

    Yes! That country did look familiar. That area has some giants. Your goat is no exception. No doubt we agree that Ed runs a top notch operation.

    Mountain goat now, or sheep later.. maybe never

    There's a lot of great advice here. I've been on a goat hunt that was expensive compared to other goats hunts at the time. The outfit, experience and results more than exceeded expectation. I could see where every penny went. My sheep hunt in the Himalayas was a relative bargain when compared to...

    2 weeks from desert sheep opener.

    Indeed! This guy took it to "11" right out of the gate! Where do these people come from? A new classic for '25 is born.

    Trekking Poles

    Like many above, I snapped one Leki carbon on my goat hunt. The better news is they replaced the set w/ no questions asked.

    Cooking Moose

    Here's a good place to start. A classic approach to beef tartare that translates well to moose. I've also tried it with round w/ good results. https://www.newyorker.com/culture/kitchen-notes/how-to-make-a-classic-bistro-style-steak-tartare-at-home

    Cooking Moose

    I agree 100%. Moose is fabulous! I had a chef friend observe me cutting backstrap steaks and had me slice a thin piece off for him to try raw. I thought he was crazy until he urged me to do the same. It was delicious. After that I prepared tartar and served the moose like sushi w/ soy and...

    Alberta Bighorn Outfitter Recommendation

    That's a real shame. It's also an indicator of the contempt that outfitter has for his clients and the animal itself. Unexcusable!

    International trophy turnaround information

    A few fellow RS'er were curious about the stateside return of my blue sheep hide and horns. There have been a few horror stories about seizures or just plain loss of trophies when dealing with international exportation. Fortunately for me the process was seamless and efficient. Here are the...

    338 Win Mag brass unfired

    Raven Rock Precision has .338 WM Norma Brass in stock. You're not kidding about .338 brass being tough to find!

    Newfoundland Moose

    Funny you say that. I became the defacto camp cook on my trip. The guides (and other hunter) were delighted. The last thing the guide wanted to do after a day in the field was cook dinner for everyone. He was also happy to not eat moose!

    Anyone else have a buddy bail at the last minute? (CO Archery Elk 2024)

    Yep. Where I come from flaking is an art form. So is desperate need to over share on social media (evidence of the BS excuse for flaking). Planned a moose trip to NL for months w/ a guy and he bailed 2 weeks out w/ an excuse of a surprise birthday party for his aging Mother. Wanted me to try...
