LamarI have no desire to go to Africa,,, but I have always wanted to come hunt those Black grouse.
it's similar to hunting our forest grouse here, and the birds are a similar size, so I know what goes into this.

Heym SR20What sort of skis are using for this type of hunting. I imagine a back country ski with dynafit binding, plastic boot and skins is far too noisy?

Skis - cross country 2.4 m Forrester with a
simple plastic ipok bindings with a single leather ankle strap and nylon toe strap. One size fits all. Binding fits over the Douvre Extreme boots I'm using pretty well. More detail in the full report.
Cheers

LHeym500I can’t wait to read the report.
I cannot, and will not ski of any type, but this method of hunting fascinates me.
I remover reading about hunting lynx by cross country skiing. I was wide eyed.
