Alaska Peninsula Moose hunt cancellation
I have had two recent cancellations for moose hunts this upcoming season ( Sept 10-20) and have reduced the price of the hunt for the entire season to $10,000

e-mail ( grizskins@att.net ) is the best method of reaching us

Phil,
What is a reasonable expectation on a bull? Chance of success and horn size assuming a hunter and walk and shoot.

Hi Dogcat,
I am sure Phil will answer for himself. But, I hunted with him a few years ago for moose. I think 60", is VERY reasonable expectation.
Now if Phil just had a Brown Bear hunt cancellation for me this year, I would be all set.

Sure, if your paying.

Helluva deal for someone with Phils reputation.

Biebs says he is in and looking for another to accompany him.

He wants something larger than the one my hunter took last year

You are a DINK
So it has to be bigger than you to be good.
We will compare I should have mine down by the time you start maybe we will meet in Alaska and go fishing with Peter again.

I had a hunt scheudled some place else at the last minute the company sold out.
I have been in contact with Phil he has another guy that has spoken for this hunt but has not sent the deposit yet. I am next inline if the other guy dont pull the trigger by tuesday.
My check is on its way.
Oh Jon called he told my wife he was buying the second hunt also just to keep me from going. Now how is that for a hunting buddy.
If this dont work Tom Shankster here I come If you are interested in another good place PM me. He is one of the good guy's.
