What is unusual is that the pup doing his duty in his own space. They usually won't do that. I'll add the other suggestions are spot on too. Puppies need attention and lots of guidance. Hope all this advice helps. House training takes time and patience.

Very interesting letter and much appreciated. I have hunted Wyoming as a Nonresident since 1977. I live in Colorado since I retired 21 years ago. Lander, Wy was my choice for retirement, but my wife won out. If Wyoming changes much in their system and the $$$ it takes to participate in hunting...

One recommendation about buying seafood. Go to one of the businesses who process, smoke or can your fish. Their prices are pretty much in line with the markets, but their variety and quality is outstanding. We bought smoked salmon and prawns that were to die for and pretty reasonable.

Another recommendation for Louie's. One thing I remember is that I was a little surprised at the prices. Don't expect seafood to be cheaper just because your in Alaska.

I use 180 gr Nosler Partition for elk. My rifle likes them and does great. I have a custom .300, not a Wby rifle. I have also shortened up the freebore and it shoots great.

I use Sierra Bullets in my 30-06, 25-06 and .220 AI Swift. I like them and have used them for many, many years. I have several hundred 150 gr BT Game Kings that I am going to work up a deer load for my .300 Wby.

Not too many years ago several people who questioned the shot by Dixon, got a surveyor, a ballistic specialist from the US Army and a bunch of competition 1000 yard BP shooters and did a study on the tale. The conclusion was ....yes it was possible and probably happened. Pretty well reported...

Billy Dixon was a famous Texas indian fighter who legend has it, shot one off his horse at a distance of around a mile with a black powder single shot buffalo rifle. I am an avid western history fan and compete in Cowboy Action Shooting and shoot black powder in competition.

You must be related to Billy Dixon! LOL

As always, great information and post .

I completely agree with you. Now that the weather has warmed up here, I am going to work on another load for my .300 Wby. I has been my elk rifle, but now I am going to work om a lighter bullet load for deer for this fall.

We rented ours thru VRBO. Yes we went on a charter. Unfortunately the guy we went with retired. A lot of the charters launch over the beach at Ninilchik part way down the Kenai. There are also a lot of charters at Seward. If you havn't decided on the dates, you might want to check the tide...

I am sure Bob (AKaviator) will answer you as he lives in Anchorage. My wife and I spent a month there in 2019. We rented a cabin (on a lake) just south of Saldotna on the Kenai and loved the area. Don't miss Homer as it is a beautiful place. We fished Halibut and Kings in the early run. We also...

My wife and I did some great planning for retirement. We spent 20 years researching and traveling the western US for Location....did I say Location! Picked our spot and bought 6 acres of bare land. Designed and built our home and retired at age 58 and never looked back. I have a great...

....and we were lucky to survive!

I had a Lab male that was a monster , I named him Teal for the smallest duck he would retrieve. My current female Lab had to have the kennel name in the AKC name. Her AKC name is Wing Music Jenny of Eickhorn. The Wing Music is our tradition to have something about music in names. Our last boat...

When I was young, the first thing that came to mind when trophies were mentioned, was African hunts. Lots of pictures in magazines of the hunters with their animals. I was pretty young and I really didn't think anything about what was done with the meat. I am sure most non hunters who see...

I have a friend who lives in Nevada who has done 4 or 5 of the mothership/skiff Kodiak Blacktail hunts. Don't know the timing, but he has done very well. He told me the mothership accomadations and food was excellent.

Yep...welcome and give us a little background.

I wipe mine down with wet paper towels just before butchering.
