    Canada's Trudeau set to resign any day as Finance Minister resigns

    If the conservatives flip Canada, what are the top priorities for change in conservation policies. Two top priorities include slowing down the hand off of Crown land to tribes and Grizzly policy in BC and NWT. Could these changes and others be possible now?

    Should I change from 2017 MR Marshall to SG Sky Archer 6400?

    Turkey,I decided to take advantage of theSG 20% sale. Went with the Sky Talus and picked up a couple accessories too. Appreciate your comments. I've now left MR for SG....another converted adventure hunter I suppose.

    Should I change from 2017 MR Marshall to SG Sky Archer 6400?

    I have several Goat and Sheep hunts book for the next few years. I run a 2017 Marshall I used a few years back on my one and only NWT hunt in 2022. Finally able to head back to NWT and wondering if my older body would benefit from an upgrade? I like the Marshall, but it is heavy. Thoughts on...

    Would you sell Bitcoin for a Sheep hunt?

    I probably would. Ask for more than $104K is risky. You could use a HELOC and HODL for a bit longer...is the interest worth paying while you wait for BTC to make its next move up...hard to know.

    Why you should not take equity out or dump your 401 K to take super expensive hunts.

    The problem is you have no idea how long the book is....

    Grizzly bear killed in Unit 6

    It's like in Michigan, a guy trapped and killed a wolf in southern Michigan. There haven't been wolves there in 150 years. Still waiting to see what comes of the whole thing.

    Great hunt with Jake Jefferson

    Jake's well known on Rockslide so you can check that out. I found him as a referral from here. I've never hunted bears with anyone else. My experience with Jake's been really good. 4 grizzlies and 1 black bear in 2 hunts with my daughters. I'll be going back with my 3rd daughter in a year...

    Great hunt with Jake Jefferson

    We had another great hunt with Jake. This was my second daddy daughter hunt with Jake. We took two Grizzlies and a super black bear. The biggest bear squared over 9ft. If you are looking for a fun and exciting Alaska adventure give Jake a call. We paired this up with some super fun halibut...

    Question for those that have taken shots on Dall’s

    Back pack is ideal….anything to reduce weight.

    Question for those that have taken shots on Dall’s

    Prone. Everything I shot in NWT was of the pack.

    How did you pick your pack?

    Honestly, I knew absolutely nothing about western/mountain hunting. I have no friends that have experience western hunting - shoot, I don't even have any friends that do serious back packing. So I did what anyone would do - I bought the Mystery Ranch Metcalf because Randy said too. Since then...

    What's the best 308 factory load for BC?

    I just picked up a new Kimber Mountain Ascent in 308. Before I settle on the Nosler 165 accubond, I was wondering if there is a factory load with a better BC to help with those +400 yard shots. Thoughts?

    Taking Equity out of Home OP spoke to me - now, me too!

    The same standard should be applied to car loans, second homes, etc. while I disagree with your position, thank you for making the point.

    Taking Equity out of Home OP spoke to me - now, me too!

    Now that is funny….my oldest who I’m taking to BC next year was worried about that. I told her not to screw this hunt up! The other two are still trolling….

    Taking Equity out of Home OP spoke to me - now, me too!

    Life insurance in place to ensure everything is paid off should I fall off a cliff or get eaten buy a bear. another thought…most guys whitetail hunting climbing in trees will have more claims per hunter than adventurer hunters who are cared for by a guide.
