Wow Scott!!!! Can’t wait to get this hunt report with pictures!!!! Please details my friend!!!!
I have been looking for a PB hunt for several years. Then COVID hit. I even bought a replica PB mount at the SCI auction several years ago that I have obviously never had built - yet. Like many hunters, I figured I might go with Shane Black with Canada North Outfitting so my wife and I made a plan to talk to him at SCI years ago. We walked up to his booth and I said I was interested in a PB hunt. We started talking and then he saw my name badge. He immediately interrupted himself and said, “Oh wait, you’re Scott L!” “I’ve heard you’re a big trophy hunter. I don’t think I have any bears that you would be happy with. I only have one area with the size of bears that I think you would be interested in hunting and it’s $55k and I’m booked up there for a couple years. In my other areas, you would have to be happy with an 8.5’ bear so I don’t think that would work for you. I do have a donated hunt in the Saturday night auction in that best area but I think it might sell way above the normal $55k price.” I was shocked! I told him I usually look to the outfitter and guide to tell me what to expect from the area I am hunting. I was flabbergasted by his statements and my wife and I walked away!

I had only spoken to him once before clear back in 2001 when I was looking for a Stone’s sheep hunt, back when he was a part owner in a BC outfit called BC Safaris. I don’t think he remembered me from that conversation. I ended up booking Stone’s sheep with Art Thompson of Gundahoo River Outfitters instead and had a fabulous hunt.

I can only guess by his statements to me at SCI that he had heard that I guide some people to big 10’+ brown bears on the AK Peninsula and/or that I had taken a B & C Dall’s sheep in the Chugach Mountains in Alaska? As for the Dall’s ram hunt, I did switch outfitters when the guy I was booked with moved from the Chugach area to a different area in the Wrangle Mountains. I had my heart set on hunting in the Chugach, like some of my friends had done. Had he heard that I switched outfitters? I have no idea. My wife, normally quite soft-spoken, said, “I don’t want you to hunt with that guy. Let’s look for something else.”

I think I found a great spot, local guide and different outfitter. To be continued…

Baffin boots
us army bunny boots or the new version. i saw them in store in town, i did not try them but finding here it is a good news as well when your actual ones will die some will be available.

i repeat the main reason: with those boots and no liners outside if your feet are wet you just change the socks and you re back in business the main reason the bunny boots (white version) are working so good with the people here, in alaska and all over the cold weather we can reach ...
