    Cotton Game bags v.s. Synthetic Bag (TAG)

    They are full of it, Tag bags are all I have used since moving back to Alaska in 2000 and I have lost zero meat to spoilage. I suggest taking 2 sets, that way you can swap them out while you are out in the field. I have never used citric acid or black pepper but I know Larry has and he swears by...

    Alaska Moose Hunt Optics Question

    Does your area have a 50" restriction as well? My buddy's been using a Swaro spotter for years now and at long distances counting brow tines is still difficult but it does it's job when it comes to 50" or bigger bulls. We've let a ton of bulls walk over the years that were not 50" and were also...

    WTB Original Sitka clothing - Mountain Mimicry Camo

    Mountain Mimicry is my favorite camo pattern and I already have a fair amount of this stuff but I'd like to get more if anybody has any they want to sell. I wear a size 34r pants and XL jacket. Looking for a Celsius jacket, 90% jacket, mountain pants, I don't need any shirts as I've got enough...

    Dream Sheep Gun

    I've been using the same Winchester Model 70 push feed 270 for well over 30 years and I see no reason to switch now. Is it the lightest rifle out there, not even close but I'm comfortable with it and it shoots better than I could ever hope too. 47 days and counting before it's back in the sheep...

    Dream Sheep Gun

    Kimber 84M in a Montana stock in the vaunted 7mm-08 caliber, topped with a Leupold. Actually, my wife owns one of these but without the Montana stock, it's one of the lightest rifles I've ever picked up.

    Sheep Hunt Drawing History

    I started applying for sheep tags here in Alaska back in 1990 and stopped when I moved out of state in 1996, I never drew a tag during that timeframe. Then I moved back up here in 2000 and started applying again in 2001 and in those 20 years I have drawn the DCUA sheep tag 3 times, 2009, 2011...

We flew into a very remote lake and had t hike 5 hours to get to the area where we were to hunt, a remote dried up river in between...

    I take a Texan floatin.........

    That Levitator is a great boat, I used rented one from Larry in 07 and we had a nice comfy camp (not as nice as yours) as well. We managed to bag a 52"er about mid way through the hunt that had drop tines on both sides of the brows. I've got to admit, I've become accustomed to nice big comfy...

    Ft Rich archery moose hunt

    Well I finally managed to call in a bull late yesterday afternoon but as he was coming in a fellow hunter on a bike happened to stop by where I was hunting. I was worried he might wander into the area where the bull was so I opted to walk back out to the road and meet up with him. I told him...

    Ft Rich archery moose hunt

    Went out again on Saturday to the usual spot, didn't see any moose and once again no response to calling. Tried another spot on Tuesday that I hunted back in 08, got close to the trailhead of where I wanted to hunt but had to go around a cow moose with a calf, she wouldn't let me go by no matter...

    Which rifle...

    Congrats on the moose! I own several of Larry's books and videos and they are awesome resources for hunting Alaska's river corridors. By the way, your pics aren't working, at least for me anyways.
