    Specific Haul Road Questions

    We shot our caribou last fall and it was pretty warm. We laid our caribou quarters in game bags near the river with a tarp over them for shade. They cooled nicely. We did not ship our meat home, we donated it to a food shelf in Fairbanks. Maybe they would help you freeze your meat in exchange...

    Stripping Velvet

    First Elk hunt....tips and guidance for central wyoming ?

    Do majority of people sell there guns when they upgrade/replace with a new one?

    I've sold a few and don't usually miss them. I have a few that will never be sold because they belonged to my grandpa, dad, father in law.... I'll let my kids sort it out after I'm gone, unless one of them gets busy and gets me some grandkids, then that kid will be set.
