DANG....nice fish, I'm jealous

mmmmm yummy

Great job on the story Mike. I think you did a great job of condensing 19 days of hunting!!!!

Great camera, I had the same one and sold it for the same reason. I wish I could afford this one right now!!!

I don't own a 257 weatherby, but I have taken a deer with one. Most of the calibers discussed on this forum will take big game at 500 yards. It is almost alway's about bullet placement and the shooters ability to place it there

I don't know how you did that, but I'm quite sure if I saw one on my trail cam, I would find somwhere else to hunt

Ive actually seen them up here by Payson a couple of times, I have even seen one at 6500 feet just east of here. Here is a video I took about a year ago.

Later the better usually!!!

I would love to try the kenetrecs, I have heard great things about them. I will have to wear out my current Danners before I can think about it. I took several pairs of socks to Alaska this year including 1 pair of smartwool. I found it was very helpfull to keep changing socks especially in a wet environment. I saw no difference in my socks, they were all high quality wool blend type socks

wow..this one has been going on a while. I was 13 or 14, feral pig in the Northern Territory of Australia...first big game here...mule deer in unit 23 in my mid 20s...that would be the 80's

I also am no expert, but have seen, and have been told if the ears look real small next to the head it is a larger older bear, those ears look pretty big, so I would have to concur with everyone else.

I don't know, but if it involves government, it almost assuredly involves some sort of permit....we can't have you just picking stuff up from "their" land

Mike, I thought you knew about gravity, I can't believe I trusted you to set up my shot last December

Wow, what a long hard hunt. I'm going to attempt to post a couple of pictures from Michael's computer, and then start adding the story below as time permits. I am still stuck in Anchorage until tonight.

That is a great deal!!!

wow

Wow..not to bad for a first buck

I love that buck with all the crazy junk. Too bad you could not connect on him

Some pretty cool pics, keep em comin

I have a buddy that I used to hunt in there with a while back. It used to be pretty good, but access is very limited now. They used to let people through the gate, but I'm not sure now. My buddy said numbers of deer were lower, and you had to walk a long way around private property?

I got up over the weekend to change memory cards on one of the trail cams. Have a few more WT starting to come into this spot...might be worth sitting in January if it isn't snowed in. Definitely developing into a promising spot for next August.

Wow...that's the one I was looking for...what the heck am I saying, I'm still lookin for

no brainer, I have to agree with the majority, around 110 maybe 115 gross

Purdy!!!

Nice!!!
