Are you all running only the ramrod in the field? The loading tips/jags don’t fit through the ramrod guide clips, so it would be a time consuming process to screw that on when reloading (in the granted unlikely follow up shot opportunity).
I have a couple different custom ends for the various...
Who on your playlist deserves more listeners? From small town favorites, artists just breaking through, to independent musician friends who don't have big labels to promote them, who is worthy of more listening love?
Tommy Prine (John Prine's son) is starting his musical career and has a great...
Long story short, had a guy wandering around my property and my parents’ place next door. Red crown vic with no hubcaps. White guy about 50, tatted up, ripped jeans, bloody knuckles, pit bull on a rope leash. Had a very strange conversation with him. Couldn’t decide if he was schizophrenic...
Have any of you seen one like this?? Greylag x Canada hybrid? Escaped barnyard concoction?? Said to be fraternizing with canada geese. 42” long, black feet, black beak tip, no nose hump. Weird combination.
No teasers here. Came home with no meat but a lot of good memories. If you want to follow along …
My son and I drew a couple moose tags in an antler-restricted unit south of Fairbanks. My brother-in-law lives outside of Anchorage and came with his menagerie of resident tag options.
We used...
I am getting my gear together for my Alaska moose hunt (leave on Saturday). I keep going back and forth on a few items and would appreciate some input. I am used to backcountry elk hunts and try to run a 40# pack (dry) for a week long hunt. My weight for this 10 day drop hunt has gotten out of...
I picked up a wolf tag for my upcoming AK moose fly-in hunt. 11 days near the glacial headwaters of a river. I have no experience turning ears, lips, webbed paws, feet, etc, and honestly I would rather leave it to a pro to make sure it’s done right. Is there a way to do the primary skinning...
My girl got bit by a copperhead today. I was in the garage getting ready to push the boat out when I hear her yelp, see her jump back, then watch her high tail it out of sight. I thought it may have been yellow-jackets, until I walk closer and see a good sized one coiled up. I grab a shovel from...
I am looking for recommendations on a budget friendly, decent but not amazing, fluid head for glassing with a 2.5lb spotter. It’s for my upcoming moose hunt in AK in an antler restricted area, so something that won’t drive me crazy during long glassing sessions and can lock down tight and be...
I am two months out from my Alaskan moose adventure. I need a book to get me excited and a book to take with me on the trip (preferably not grizz attack tales). What are your favorites?
I just got my suppressor in yesterday (6" Harvester EVO) and now am looking at my different rifles to decide which ones to modify. I would love some input from you all that use them on your hunting rifles. Should I thread them all? Skip some? Keep them long? Cut some down? To what length? Here...

I have a pair of insulated rubber boots that I wear waterfowl hunting. Irish Setter, 800g insulation. I stepped into a hole back in January and filled them with water. I have hung them upside down in my garage for a few weeks, set them outside in the sun for a few weeks, put newspapers inside...
I've pulled turkeys' heads plumb off trying to wring necks. I've had "dead" geese come back to life and try to attack me in the boat. I've had chukar and doves give me a surprise back rub through my vest pouch. There's got to be a reliable way to quickly and reliably dispatch wounded/crippled...
No, there isn’t a new posthumous Jim Harrison novel (although I wish there were). This is a post on the evolution of my puppy’s waterfowl hunting throne.
We took her out on her first trip during the September teal and goose season, river jump-shooting. We took canoes and my buddy brought his...
I witnessed a unique new elk hunting strategy that I hope will NOT start sweeping the country.
At daybreak, after a brutal 2400’ climb in Idaho’s famous flatlands 🤣, I finally found the herd way back and way up. 20+ cows and the bull of a lifetime. A dandy 7x7.
They were relaxed, feeding on...
