    Osceola in Paradise

    I drew a coveted Osceola permit last year with plans to allow my wife to hunt it as my guest (Florida's version of party hunting). We made all the plans and arrangements for a week long camping trip with the kids that would allow her to focus on taking her first Osceola and everyone to spend...

    A high fence turkey hunt

    Ok, not exactly but..... Nothing against folks who hunt inside a fence, just not for me. But heck, I've hunted big game on an island before, so perhaps I'm a hypocrite? Though, I've always justified my moral choice in the matter with "they could always swim away too..." Should a Turkey...

    Arizona CC Hits

    I love this idea. Had no idea something like this exists. Thank you for the recommendation.

    Arizona CC Hits

    Imagine my surprise when I saw a $650 hit on my CC with only 1 point for each my wife and I. Then, imagine my shock when I realized that I somehow entered in two antlerless tags for myself by mistake as 2nd and 3rd choices. As a result, I'm in a bit of a situation. Either my wife or I hit a...

    Month Out....

    I'm curious myself and will certainly report back. Opted to stay at CML. By the time I worked up all the logistics of a boat rental/food/fuel/etc., the rate for 2 to stay at CML wasn't all that much more. Besides, bringing the wife along and this will be our first trip to Alaska. Saw a lot...

    Congrats @Young Buck. Wife and I are headed to Kupe May 11-18, 2021. Everything I hear says it'll be a great time with or without bears!

    Reckon I get to squeeze a little more value out of my application money in the form of anticipation/dreaming. Site is down for me on all devices.

    Hopefully that means the pool of applicants diminished and my Musk Ox tag is in the bag! :giggle:

    Month Out....

    Kind of strange to have not seen more chatter/buzz about the drawing. It is traditionally today, right?

    Waders for SE AK?

    This is great feedback. I had no idea on the felt boot thing and am glad I asked the question. Good reminder to add some rule reading time to my agenda very soon. Having applied for this tag a year ago, it' been too easy to ignore that part of the planning process.

    Waders for SE AK?

    I live and hunt in Florida and waders aren't something I use very often. With that, I have a $75 neoprene pair from Academy Sports that work OK for the times that I need them. They have pinhole leaks in the stitching that I've spent enough money on trying to seal and it's looking like I may...

    Approaching Black Bear

    Hunting Black Bear for the first time, 2nd week in May of 2021, with tags for SE AK. This will be an unguided trip with my wife, her in the shooter #1 position. Fulfilling a lifelong trip for both of us to see Alaska and mixing in a new challenge by hunting something we've never chased. As...

    Elk hunt with a 4 year old

    Heck yeah man, that is too cool. I'm having the same type of experiences with my 4 year old, just not the elk kind yet. He keeps asking if we're going elk hunting, but I have to explain that those opportunities are 1500+ miles away. Congrats on an incredible memory.

    Taste of Coastal Black Bear

    My wife and I drew Black Bear tags for SE Alaska and will be hunting in Mid-May out of Petersburg, AK. The main focus will be on getting her a bear, and whether or not I fill my tag is not a pressing matter. That said, I live in Florida and the logistics of getting two bears home doesn't...

    sous vide euro failure

    By no means am I an expert, but I've done well over 100 skulls at this point and have done extensive research on the topic. So, I have strong opinions on this subject. There are sure multiple ways to skin the cat, but this is how I do it. What you're describing is my preferred method for euro...

    Trade Florida Guide for a Wyoming "Guide"

    Yeah, it's early in the game for sure. However, I'm also trying to consider someone that may want to plan a trip Florida for the spring/summer and thinking the sooner I can get the process started the better off all will be. I'm located just south of Tallahassee, Florida on the Forgotten...
