    What are your highly educated opinions on tech in hunting?

    Different strokes for different folks. I grew up using a compass. And that's all I still use. I do look at Google earth. For me it's the experience. I'm blessed to be able to get out into bush ak all by myself. A lot of the time there isn't phone reception either. Identifying habit. Sign...

    Pooping in the Woods - A question of thresholds

    Hey. Personally I can't believe that this is a topic. And 10 pages. Kinda on a roll maybe. Personally, I'd rather poo in the woods than sit on those toilets. Do bears eat poo in the woods ?

    Hunting and being hearing impaired

    Hearing protection is always great. But there is us that the bones in my ears fused. I cannot hear 80% of all sound tones. And cannot tell direction. Everything comes from my left.

    How big of a roll does hunting play in your life?

    A big role. Starting hunting as a kid into the 60s. Now I'm in my 60s and wishing I could get out more. Just like then. Moving to Alaska as a 21 year old young man that saw the mountains and the land and knew I was going to hang my hat here. When our kids were smaller and money tighter...

    Numbers. Why?

    I guess the numbers I care about are what it takes to be legal. 50 inch 3 brow tines or spike fork. That's plenty to worry about. The amount of game harvested in different areas in past years is also important. Harvest data

    Field photos with hunter sitting on top of the animal

    I'll agree. Not something I do but it's your photos. I also think that it's better to not have a bunch of blood in the photos or tongue hanging out for a nice picture. Guess just trying to present the animals in their best

    Solo moose hunting tips and tricks

    Well I've done a few moose by myself. Gotta find the moose before you can harvest it. And they will probably be a bit from the road. Except n plan on it. If you score one close great. Calling bulls depends on the timing of the rut. I like to locate cows and the bulls will find them. In pre rut...

    Not sure about Maine moose. But for ak moose. Disiduous hard wood trees such as birch, poplar, willow, cotton wood are preferred. They generally do not eat alders.
