Nitro,
I am also a CT hunter. I just use 18 inch bolts and call it a day. I like the extra weight. I actually got stopped last year by a DEEP officer and he pulled out a measuring tape and measured my bolts. I cut them to 18.125 to have a cushion.

Re: Dall Sheep Hunt Give Away!
I ran into Greg McHale at the SCI convention in Nashville and spent about 20 minutes talking with him. He is a great guy and his enthusiasm level is off the charts. He is right up there with Fred Eichler as far as enthusiasm goes.

Venison Chili
I have a lot of ground venison in the freezer and have the itch to make chili. If anybody has a good recipe to share I would appreciate it.
Thanks!

Plastic Tube On String Changer
I went to Cabela’s yesterday afternoon to pick up a new string changer and noticed they no longer come with the plastic tube that protects the string.
Does anybody know of a source for buying these tubes?

New Scope Adjustments
Last year I put the Vortex scope om my Bulldog 440. I like the 30mm tube and the illuminated reticle but was not thrilled with the main crosshairs being at 40 yards as 95% of all my shots are between 20 and 30 yards, I lost a nice 8-point buck last year as I hit him too high in no man’s land. In the...

Re: New KUIU PROXIMITY Whitetail series clothing sells out
I am a huge fan of KUIU gear and use it most of the time but for stand hunting whitetails in extreme cold weather I have found that nothing beats the First Lite Sanctuary Jacket and bib pants. In extreme cold it's bullet proof.

Re: In Three Months
So, I just got back to CT from my Yukon moose hunt. It was a great experience and was better than I could have possibly imagined. It was a true adventure. I got a great 57-inch bull that they estimated at 1,600 pounds and 7 1/2 years old. His rack is awesome and I could not be happier. He will be a ...

Re: In Three Months
So I leave for Whitehorse in just 9 days. Can't wait. I got the duffle bags all packed up and I am ready to go. I clear customs in Vancouver and then have to catch the flight to Whitehorse so I hope the Vancouver airport is not to big. Hopefully I will get some nice photos of the trip I can share. N...

Re: In Three Months
I Glad to hear that its coming to fruition! Excellent! :thumbup: It will be a tough hunt I'm sure. The year I hunted elk in the Wyoming mountains, I cycled hard and long every day for 6 months. What are you doing to get ready for it? I have been been backpacking with some weight about 10 miles every...
