    Hunting & Fishing wildlife tech or foxpro?

    Re: wildlife tech or foxpro? I bought a WT caller 8 or 9 years ago because Foxpro didn't have decent wolf sounds then. I consider most of the features marketing gimmics and would buy a foxpro if they had working wolf sounds. Strong points of WT are remote range and speaker volume. To me the...

    Advanced Marksmanship Shooting in extreme cold

    Re: Shooting in extreme cold I've spent a lot of time sitting in snowbanks at subzero temps calling wolves and -15 was my limit. I never used chemical hand/feet warmers because of the scent but don't really know how big an issue that was but didn't want to take the chance. Very light lube...

    Missile Launch off the coast of LA

    Re: Missile Launch off the coast of LA When I looked at the film clip one the potential explanations given was a demonstration of our abiltiy to launch a nuke from a submerged sub. Isn't that a little dated? I watched that demo live off Christmas Island in 1962. While I was digging for the...

    Hunting & Fishing Which 700 SPS Tactical for Alaska snowmobile rig?

    Re: Which 700 SPS Tactical for Alaska snowmobile rig? BJ: I used several 223 AR's on snowmobiles, atvs, argos and carried them on my back and they do OK in some very crappy conditions. I don't hunt fox here and the coyotes are few are far between but do like the challange of wolves. Had one...

    Hunting & Fishing Brown Bear Photos

    Re: Brown Bear Photos AM: The first boar is the one that tried to come through our living room window. The paw print on two of our windows and the paw print where I took his photo both measured 8 1/4" so I would guess he is a little over nine. They sometimes grow even with a steel tape...
