Shot a coues with a 2” sevr. Black bear with an exact 125 grain fixed. Brown bear, Columbian blacktail, and wild hog all with an evolution Hyde.
Blown away with the blood trail difference after switching to the hybrid designs. I’ll be running sevr hybrids and evolution hydes from now on for all...
I downsized recently.
Barney’s Freighter Frame- moose quarters and bear baiting
Kifaru Muskeg 7000 (or whatever size the bigger one is)- do all multi day trips
Kuiu Divide 3000- day trips/airline travel bag
Kuiu Encounter 3000- quieter version of daypack left only for treestand hunting

As an Alaskan I’m extremely torn on this topic. State management likely leads to eventual sales and once it’s gone it’s gone. On the flip side, federal dictatorship about land use is reaching sky high levels.
If you had massive federal closures superseding your state fish and games management...
Have you ever gone on many backpack hunts? You have to pack for this trip the same as a sheep hunt or a high country mulie hunt gear wise. As stated above the easiest solution is convince your partner to go cause it cuts your portion of base camp in half on the weight limit.
I personally find...
Used several seasons but always inside the included neoprene scope skin and comes with the zippered carrying pouch for transport. No scratches on lenses. $550 shipped.
Used on two trips that I can recall, always in case or on tripod. Comes with Outdoorsman stud. No need to continue holding on to them. $1200 shipped, make an offer and we can talk :)
New in box moss green tight spot 5 arrow quiver. Ended up not using it and went another route. Looking to get $100 for it, can split shipping cost. Located in Anchorage Alaska.
I apologize to the three guys who purchased tickets too late. The system was supposed to block sales after the 300th ticket and it obviously did not. All three were issued personal emails apologizing for the error, and refunds were issued.
It would be unfair to the original draw to allow...
Posting this with Ryan's permission. Alaskan Bowhunter's Association purchased a fully guided Alaskan Brown Bear baited hunt for the spring of 2020 with Jonah's Alaskan Outfitters to raffle off. We are only selling 300 tickets total for $100 each. Anyone who wants to hunt big bears, mountain...
I leave in 5 days for a goat hunt. All reports I've received mirror what has already been posted. Very mild winter thus far, not much snow at all down low, and temps are still luke warm for the next few weeks.
Winter goats, and fall brown bear tag to pair with the annual sitka hunt. Love me...
Noatak is a controlled use area, No airplanes at all for hunting purposes Aug 15-Sept 30 so unless you plan to hunt first two weeks of August no NR will be hunting there.
Companies run promotional all the time, it's how they attract new customers on the fence and grow their business.
If it isn't worth the price, their prices will adjust accordingly in the future as demand falls off. I can see for a guy who hunts his same in state honey holes every year why the...
I have a medium chest freezer and a larger upright. Upright for meat to cycle through next, then chest freezer for the newest meat if upright is overflowing and then space taken up with frozen gallon jugs of water. I use the gallon jugs in coolers during the summer to not buy ice. This helps...
