    Solo caribou hunt

    Going solo is a tough pitch unless you already have a relationship with the transporter, even then most will refuse. If you hunt archery, maybe try a solo haul road hunt within 5 miles of the road. Or do the hike to rifle land. Better yet, spend the next year posting here and asking for...

    Driving To AK from the lower 48.

    We have done the trip, both directions, about 6 times now. No flat tires. Never ran outta gas. Don’t drive at night in Canada. Too many animals get in the roadway. Liard Hot springs requires a reservation and is totally worth it. Ship the handgun. Take an old license plate for the forest...

    RIP ?

    My wife’s maiden name is Coe. She once burned her finger and said ‘dangit’! I lost a lot of respect for that lineage that day. Some of his stuff was a bit rough so I avoided it, but, I listen regularly to a couple songs you can find on radio. The one song is truly perfect. If that ain’t country…

    Hunting backpack that works for carry-on

    I have used a midsized badlands (2800?) pack for about 8 years. I use it as my primary day pack while hunting and it has been with me on 5 continents. I don’t leave ammo in it, or knives. I don’t schedule dates with my girlfriend and my wife the same night. I don’t store diesel fuel and...

    Stories from Hunter Ed

    Many years ago I took my family to Europe for a job I had. I contacted the State of Idaho to try to get my daughter into HE before we left but there was nothing doing. They said she could be the first to try out a new ‘online course’. We accepted and she attended from Estonia via dial up. Man...

    Haul Rd Hunters Turo joins Uhaul

    I see A BUNCH of those trucks and vans on the haul road. I wonder if the issue is damage or stink? Either way, that will be a lot of lost revenue. It must have been a difficult decision.

    Shoulder Surgery

    I had 2 repairs and then a reverse replacement. I heal quick so my replacement did not cost me a hunting season. I was pulling a 60 lb bow in no time. I focused on stretching and elasticity, not strength. I also watched lots of videos and learned better mechanics of pulling a bow back. Now my...
