    2027 Hunt

    Do the PH let you take some guinea fowl and sandgrouse on the side with a shotgun for free? If I was there I would take full advantage of small game.

    Winchester Model 70 Alaskan

    What an awesome rifle. Modern built, I believe in Spain, but with classic old school Model 70 DNA. High quality. Many owners describe this as being the closest modern thing to a pre-64 M70. Great rifle. Please let us know how it shoots.

    A short story from this morning's turkey pursuit...

    Correct on treating it like deer season this time of year. They just don't respond to calls at all beyond in the morning.

    Public Land Turkey Hunting Tips

    Sealed the deal on this bird. First day of hunting. @JD338 @jimbires Thanks for the guidance! These birds were call shy and I called very little just enough to make the male curious. 15 - 20 Yard shot at max. He came up behind me to the left side.
