Other Big Game / Cougar license question
« Last post by elk_sniper on Yesterday at 08:55:19 PM »
Me and my boy were thinking about doing some cougar hunting and I was a bit confused on the new license rules. It says that you must buy a Big game license that includes cougar so my question is does that mean you can no longer buy just a cougar license or tag? I haven't hunted them for a very long time so I don't understand the new requirement.

Guns and Ammo / Re: Older SxS shotgun

Get some good photos of it up and I’ll reach out. 

What I do know is that most of those old breach loading 12 gauge guns have 2 1/2 inch chambers.  What I have been able to find suggests that he moved from England to Chicago and has strong connections to the Birmingham firearms trade and Webley & Scott in particular. 

There is substantial crossover interest between single shot (falling block) enthusiasts and double guns.  It wouldn’t surprise me if someone can’t give quite a bit of info on it or respond with a web address of a site that people knowledgeable in them frequent. It appears to me as though this concern imported and/or worked on Purdy, Wesley Richards and other “Best” quality guns.  Photos of any markings are going to be helpful and photos of the action as well.

Other Big Game / Re: Bull moose...luck or ???

All true statements.  Here now with a 49 north Nov. tag.  Day 19 for me went home for 4, 3500 miles on truck. Dozen or so total moose seen.  4 bulls within 300yards
All small under 2.5 yrs old.  Have many new local friends from the unit helping.  Weather has not been ideal.  Things have changed so much, 20 years ago we saw nice bulls all the time while hunting the late white tail hunt.

My advice.  Spent the money if you can, go to Alberta and bag a moose😂. Fuel, food, lodging, all the supplies/gear and  24 years applying.  It’s about a wash $$.
Agree 👍going next year to Alberta

All Other Gear / Re: What boots?
« Last post by pickardjw on Yesterday at 08:38:07 PM »
Schnee's Timberline have been my go to for a few years now. Not sure if they count as "lightweight" but with proper care and nixwax treating both pairs I've owned have been waterproof.

Great customer service if you end up not liking them. I tried the Beartooths in 2024. Packed out a spring bear in them and had issues with pressure points. They let me return them with a couple hundred miles on them (and bear blood) for the v3 pair at their recommendation. Had the same issue and they replaced with a new pair of Timberlines.

I'm tempted to buy a dozen pairs to last me a lifetime.

My Idaho Whitetail. Heavily cropped picture because after I shot him, he rolled and at first I thought his guts were sticking out (my shot angle could have allowed the bullet to travel thru him). Once I got down to him though, his rear leg was shattered, and he had a giant abscess that was sticking out thru the hide. Didn’t take the time to roll him around for a better picture because it was pouring down rain, so I just wanted to get to work.

Butchering, Cooking, Recipes / Re: The Gutless Method

I do gutless for everything now, except I start from the belly, and skin it back toward the spine so I have the hide to act as a ground cloth of sorts.
