Hello all, I have been out for a while with a lot on my plate. I have recently returned to Las Vegas so my wife can finish college at UNLV, and we took the summer to travel, hunt and spend some time away from it all. I have started a new corporation, bought the environmental laboratory I have worked for, and have been extremely busy with that, as well as the several hunting and fishing trips that I have gone on already this year. We have also put on over 10,000 miles on our truck in the last three months driving the AlCan twice, and cruising all over Alaska during the summer. I've managed to get two caribou on my proxy, and a cinnamon colored black bear so far this year, and just about had another caribou out hunting last night. I also managed to tick off a plus sized musk ox while taking some video of him. He charged me about 15 yards away, and I managed to work my way out of the brush that I was hiding in, and watched him work around in there looking for me. This was an old bull that was just ran off from a herd the night before.



I've been running a small video business as well, taking mostly wildlife video and photo's, and have started filming hunts. We have a couple of great caribou hunts on film this year, and I will hopefully get some good footage from elk, mule deer and moose bowhunts in September.

I have put an update on the moderators cup thread, and would like a little feedback on if we should start a new poll so the appropriate enterants can be voted on.

Good to be back and settled in for a while. Best of luck to you all on the upcoming seasons!

Jerry
