I have hunted alaska 3 time all diy hunts and I always said never go out of reach of your gun .I love to bow hunt but not in alaska . Saw 5 grizz on my bou hunt on the treeless tundra lost one bou out of 2 to them;ran him off by shooting and got the antlers.Saw 14 grezz on a moose hunt ,lost a hind quater and 2 hams and both racks of ribs.Tell me more about your hunt plans and location would help.

Guided or DIY?

Are you saying you're new to bow hunting or hunting caribou/Alaskan hunting?

I agree the only cotton I have on in the woods are my jockys

DIY

and new to hunting in alaska.

i plan on flying into fairbank and meeting my grandpa(he lives there) then from there driving up the haul road to dead horse. we are hunting north of the brooks range.my grandpa will have a gun on him.

Did that hunt in 2001 .Hunted with guns and had to be 5 mile from the road but worth it .
Take a raft to get across the sag,

i found one in a tire shop in deadhorse and payed to use it a couple of days.You are going to love it ,get a photo of you in front of the artic circle sign with your local paper in hand .Pee in the yukon shoot a grezz and do an native and you will be a sourdough.Goodluck PS there is a great alaska hunting forum out there.
