Hello fellow hunters.

Let’s see some of the PICS from your successful Alaskan hunts. We know you are out there so post some of the results. I for one would like to see what is out there.

This one was from last season. I am looking forward to this moose season.




Good luck and great hunting.

If someone could walk me thru it, or rec' the photos by email and post them for me, that would be great.

Here are a few more. Not really sure what the hide squared. I asked the guide and he said it's a big bear, pushed a little more and the guide said he'd be over 9'. The guide felt that the only measurement that counts is that of the skull. When he got to the taxidermist I asked him to give me a good honest square and he came up with 9'4". I was a bit suprised seeing one up close. For a mature bear it wasn't as outsized as I pictured one being. After looking at a bunch of pictures it struck me that no one really poses with their bear, but behind their bear.

Thanks again. It's a nice bear and squaring is something that is kind of overrated. It can also be fudged. Sounds like you had a good hunt.

That's a great looking bear! Love the short nose and big round head. Perfect coloring too. Congrats on a super hunt!

Anytime you see a bear with the ears on the side of the head like that...you know you've done well.

I really like CZ's Dall sheep. He says there were bigger sheep around but what a beauty!

Ok guys no laughing but here is spindly little caribou bull I killed the day after 9-11-01.

I work for one of the companies that was used to fly into the WTC. I major pissed off and I think it shows in that picture.

Not a big bull but a piece of history for me.

I shot him up in unit 23 my old stomping grounds from when I lived up in Kotzebue.

Interesting. I knew of guys who were stranded for awhile out there on 9-11...also know a guy who is an air traffic controller and his 9-11 stories are bizarre!

Here's an older photo of me holding another hunter's wolf that I recovered near my house. The Native hunter was Kevin Solomon in Ft. Yukon. It was a really nice wolf.


This is one of my favorite photos from an AR member...can't remember who this is but it's about as nice a Kodiak blacktail as you'll find.

That is a huge blacktail. I bet it would score at least 125.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

It's got to be B&C. Anyone remember who that is? Most people won't understand how really huge that deer is. It's the trophy of a lifetime.

These photos are posted for fellow Alaskan Scott King. Looks like he has done very well in the last few years.

My Dad and older brother were in the Brooks range on 9/11. I think they flew out on the 12th or 13th.
Here is one of my niece with a Moose at my brother’s house near Palmer.[URL= ][IMG]

What a great picture of your niece. Wow, those moose ARE huge. It's hard to understand just how big moose are when you live in Texas and have never seen one. That moose's head is about as big as your niece.

I took a look through your album so I could see a photo of the bear in the open. Looks like you had a great trip and caught some nice fish too. Your son looks wet and happy!

Somehow I ended up without photos of the bear in the open. The ones in the album are posed with a different bear, so we could have pics in the open. Oh well it happens and he is very happy with his bear.

PS the funny thing is we spent 5 days in Prince William Sound and didn't get rained on once.

yukon,

RE: Scott King. You don't know the half of it. He often hunts in the !@#$%^& river and it may well be the best moose hunting in Alaska at this time.

Jerry,

Who is the goofy looking dude in the left hand side of your moose. That really is a nice moose. How did you get it? Just dumb luck probably.

Mark, funny that you should mention that...I called Scott over the weekend and he talked about you a little bit...just what he said is confidential and could only be pried out of me if you have an extra donut.

Scott is out this week to hunt the rut.

Self-guided black bear or guided? Was probably still a lot of snow in parts of Valdez at that time of year. That place just gets dumped on. I think they once had 60" in one day. Eeker

Thats some pretty darn good shooting. Well done!

Did the first shot put him down or did it need a follow up? Did you recover the bullet? I like how the Acccubond bullets shoot in my kids 7MM-08.
