    Old Iron

    I picked up an old model 94 a while back. Just handling this rifle feels nice. It seems like you can almost feel the original owners thoughts.

    Blueberry bushes

    We have a hapsap variety of blueberry bush. Over 8' around and tall. The birds will eat every berry if not protected. We have plastic mesh over them and if we don't stake the bird mesh to the ground they will climb under the mesh and eat the berries. The moose tend to prune them for us

    Public School Woes

    As a dad and now a granddad. We homeschooled our kids and now my beautiful wife homeschools our grandson. While his mom works a remote job. I can say this. Our kids grew up to be successful in their older lives. They are very family orientated. Just as we were. We did a lot together as a family...

    Do you get tired?

    No. I had to take a couple years of from hunting moose and hated it. Last year I was out at our cabin for a week, a couple of times. I used to spend 5 weeks out there. And hopefully will be doing this again. Having to stop getting out because of medical issues really hurt the ol soal. I'm...

    Winter Blues

    Yeah the northern lights are great. I enjoy getting out and cutting firewood on bright nights like we have been having. With the full moon. Add the northern lights and there is plenty of light for dropping trees n cutting them up. Freight them back to the cabin. While I was freighting...

    Winter Blues

    When it hits -20 I tend to not get out unless I have to. Vehicles break unexpectedly and bad things can happen. My beautiful wife n me were at our cabin one winter. We planned on spending a week there. I wanted to set a few traps around. And just get some cabin time. It got down to -25...

    Youth hunter motivation?

    The outdoors can have a lot to offer. Hunting is just one avenue. I would try to get them out every chance I have. I enjoy reading Fur Fish n Game magazine. And gave a few copies to our 7 year old grandson. He is going through every page looking at the pictures. And he keeps them under his...

    Dogs Male or Female

    After 2 male chessapeaks, we now have a female. They were all great family dogs that picked up training easily. But the female is just the best. Smarter and more obedient. And doesn't need to pee on everything. Including the neighbors stuff. We are not professional breeders so have our...

    A good year

    I still get to hang out with my family. Always great. And I was able to get out moose hunting again after missing 2 years. Broken neck and a lot of nerve damage. But that's healed up now. Out of the blue, I contacted Jordan Jonnas from the TV show alone and he accepted an offer to come up...

    Ambler Road Project comment deadline now Dec 31st 2023

    I'm another ak that is very familiar with this project. And I support it. As do the majority of Alaskans. Jobs in that part of the state are scarce. And needed, wanted. Seems like every resource developed project is opposed because it will be so terrible. The oil pipeline. The lead mine near...

    MTNTOUGH - Randy

    Yeah I hear ya, about getting oller n still being able to get out. My passion for the outdoors is as big as yours Randy. A fellow needs to realize that you can never give up. My beautiful wife let me built a remote cabin that I can base out of. So I can continue to get out. And I also do my best...

    Are we really fighting Dataism?

    As an older guy. I can say that I've had a lot of great experiences in the bush before the internet. And the need to harvest a moose every year so we could feed our family make me get out n create some great memories. Like being with friends that you can never share time with again.

    Met a new friend hunting

    I know Jordan was pretty upset about not harvesting a nice trophy bull moose. But he had a great opportunity and a great hunt all around. He sent me a photo of his gun and the scope was visually off. But this happens. He tried to not show him disappointment but anyone would. He was up before...

    Who is this “Big Fin” bastard who keeps locking all the posts?

    Kinda disrespectful to go around and call folks derogatory names, especially during the Christmas season. Some folks don't have much of a life I guess. Anybody think that folks on the internet would say things like this to folks face. I suspect not. Big Fin and Hunt Talk have offered up...

    Another Shoulder Surgery Thread

    I had a full replacement done a few years ago. I would strongly suggest that you do the physical therapy religiously. Just got my neck fused again last spring. At least when the Dr asks if I remember any injuries I can tell him about failing on my butt and jamming my neck bad. While showing our...

    How old is too old to hunt?

    Never too old. I have to use a wheeler with a winch and keep a come along on it to. And a pully on the meat pole to winch up big moose quarters. And to be able to still get out I'm sure glad we built a cabin. With a nice soft warm bed. Heck we even freighted out a freezer so I or we could...

    You can only kill one next year

    Given the list available I'd prefer the elk. Except I don't have access to anything on the list. Moose with caribou close second. Caribou steaks are sooooo tender cut them with a folk. But moose provides more meat

    Family Traditions

    Great story. A tradition of ours is getting together as a family and processing any moose that we have been blessed to harvest. We also enjoy making up our own sausage recipes. And I'm originally from WI so brats are made. I've bought sausage mixes from Louies in Cumberland several times. He...
