2021 New Mexico results
Well we opted for the Outfitter pool to up our odds. Two days semi guided then 3 days DIY. Good luck, maybe we'll run into you.- TBinKodiak

2021 New Mexico results
Buddy and I drew first rifle elk in 16C. First time we have applied for elk tags anywhere other than Alaska so considering ourselves very lucky.- TBinKodiak

Nunivak Muskox
Had stew tonight with some front shoulder cuts and it was delicious. :D Steaks from the back ham were a little tough but the flavor is great hoping the extra couple days of aging will tenderize it up a bit (probably doesn't help that it was an old bull). Backstrap is marbled like a prime beef...- TBinKodiak

Cow Elk Hunt
We have them on Afognak and Raspberry islands here and Etolin and another island in the Southeast. Afognak has about 600 and Raspberry has around 150 head. They are Roosevelt transplanted from the Olympic Peninsula back in the 30s or 40s. They get pretty good sized. A couple pics from past...- TBinKodiak

Cow Elk Hunt
Finally getting around to going through pictures from this fall. Did a cow elk hunt with a couple guys back in October over on Afognak. Hunted off my buddies 58' seiner and joined forces with a pilot and his buddy on the beach so everyone would work together. Got on a herd of 80 the first day...- TBinKodiak

Nunivak Muskox
Quick hunt. We got in on January 31st and had both bulls down by 1pm on February 1st, 15 miles from town. I took this bull out of a small group of 7, then we went after a herd on the horizon for my partner. That herd was about 25 head and had a couple bigger bulls than the one I took. Buddy got...- TBinKodiak

Goat meat options
Maybe it's the different diet up here, but I've eaten 3 Billie's and a nanny. The first one was a bit rough (shot on a 70 degree day with a 9 mile pack out), but the other 3 were great. The backstrap is not very tender on them, but has good flavor. The roasts have all been fairly tender with...- TBinKodiak

Is it even feasible............
I've only hunted them on Afognak, I have friends that have hunted them on Raspberry. We ran into 9 bulls on Raspberry in December while we were deer hunting. Mostly rag horns, but cool to see a herd of bulls like that bombing around after season. I met Brian a few times. He was a nice guy, and...- TBinKodiak

It's a big island and it helps to have friends. ;) I have a 22' skiff with covered counsel, pictured below. It's a good boat for day trips, but lacks a cabin. Do most of the island hunts off the following three boats. This one is my buddies boat, it's a 28' landing craft with cabin (sorry I...- TBinKodiak

Don't forget, $500 for a Nunivak Muskox tag if you're lucky enough to draw. :eek: Did I mention I will be forking over $500 for a Nunivak Muskox tag next February... :hump:- TBinKodiak

Nothing ventured nothing gained. Had I not rolled the dice 11 years ago I would have missed out on one hell of a ride. ;)- TBinKodiak

Tok Dall Sheep
Buddy took a 41" out of a small valley in Tok in 2012 and saw another 15 legals, 2 more they figured over 40". Another friend went in last fall to the same valley and saw 2 legals, biggest maybe 37". Big die off last spring in the Tok/Delta area. You will find rams, but be prepared to hike. I...- TBinKodiak

Alaska Results!
Well I get to be THAT guy this year. After putting in for 13-15 hunts the past 5 years without a tag I drew 4 this year. Nunivak Musk ox next February, Kodiak Road system goat, Afognak cow elk, and Afognak Bear next spring. A bunch of tags, but spaced well over the next 15 months.- TBinKodiak
