    Alaska: as observer/support for a brown bear/grizzly hunt

    I have previously hunted black and brown bears with success.But a couple of years ago. Currently, however, I am saving up for an elephant hunt—after all, one must let one's dreams grow; otherwise, they eventually become too small. A vacation in Alaska, I believe, should still fall within my...

    Alaska: as observer/support for a brown bear/grizzly hunt

    No, that’s not the kind of trip I’m looking for, as you’re suggesting. I’d rather go camping there with a friend for a few days. I want to go with a hunter, not stumble around the area on a photo safari ,or sign up at the McNeil River, because otherwise everything is swamped with tourists. In...

    Alaska: as observer/support for a brown bear/grizzly hunt

    A question to the AH group: A thought has been occupying my mind for quite some time now: I would absolutely love to participate in a brown bear or grizzly hunt in Alaska—specifically as a companion. Before anyone starts hyperventilating: My goal is not to shoot a bear myself. The stalk, the...

    Politics

    "Ask yourself why our economy dwarfs most others? The economy of most U.S. States dwarfs the economies of most large countries. It's because our system is better, but most don't take this lesson away from what they learn about America." That’s certainly true, and I tip my hat to that...

    Almost a Double Rifle - Very Unusual 16ga x 9.3x74R - German Cape Gun

    Very nice. A so called "Büchsflinte" , it means shotgunbarrel beside bulletbarrel. When I read “Strasbourg, Germany, 1909,” I thought, “That can’t be right.” But you’re right. Strasbourg was German before World War I. Then it was annexed by France, then by Hitler, and then it became French...

    a few questions to the Alaska bear hunters and Alaska residents

    @dgr416 What you're describing is really disheartening. I always thought you had such strict laws against trespassing and poaching there... Does that mean you have to get on a plane for at least half an hour to get away from the nearest road? Foxi

    Buffaloes are tough

    I happened to be flipping through one of MS's books, “Death at My Feet,” again this afternoon. In it, he wrote about a buffalo that took 18 shots (.577 and .416 Weatherby Mag). Kevin, I wouldn't make too much of it—things like that just happen sometimes. Who wants to die, after all?

    Buffaloes are tough

    Kevin. Thanks for this interesting report. I'm especially glad to hear that the Hornady products performed quite well. They do get a lot of flak here on the forum. Were those the bonded bullets or the older ones? Best regards Foxi

    The Thermal Camera (Thermal Imager) Debate

    I shot this leopard with my Pulsar as a pic. For observing great. For hunting different. In Germany only for foxes and boars allowed at nighttime.
