Caribou hunt pictures
 

Thought I' d share some pictures from our caribou hunt last month. All 4 bulls were shot on August 2nd. We only had a couple of days to hunt, so we pretty much shot the first bulls we saw. My brother was the only one hunting for a nice rack, so we held out on a couple of smaller bulls before we found a nice one for him.
Mine and my dads bulls were shot a few minutes apart using his 30-06 with 180 grain noslers. My brother shot his bull with my .243 and 100 grain bullets, and my godfather shot his bull with his 30-06 and 180 grain bullets.

ahunter, what type of camcorders did you use for the video' s? I am picking up a canon xl1 next week for my hunting and outdoors stuff.

Congratulations!!

Nice pictures but you are torturing me. [:' (] I just moved from Alaska and I' m missing the caribou hunts.

The Canon your getting is excellent. I have 2 Panasonic ag-456s but am upgrading 2 of my other cameras to the Canon GL2 for the digital. My studio editing equipt. can use either & my editing equipt. can make most poor video look great-but then, thats another $20,000 +.
Good luck.

ahunter, after doing some more research, I decided to go with the Sony DSR PD-150 rather than the XL1. I plan to start off by hiring a digital editor, but eventually I will do my own editing. The prices climb pretty quick when you start looking at good quality editing equipment. I' ll start out doing some minor in house editing, but I' ll have to see where it all goes first before diving in too deep.

Shot High, I just moved out of Alaska too, but we are still residents, and I will still spend half the year there. We moved to Las Vegas so my wife could finish college at UNLV, then we are planning to move back to either Anchorage or Juneau.

Congrats Artic. on the Bou' s. I just returned last night from the Quebec side of things. The Migration seems to be turned in a different direction this season and the animals moved passed early. Nice photo' s my friend, there' s just no way I can post the little ones we got after seeing yours :)...BT

Articbowman-if you look at a stand alone unit in editing look at the Casablanca Avio. $2000 & lots of software. It is BETTER than any computer set up (my opinion)& excellent. I have it & to me is worth much more.
Oh, I like Vegas-wife & I usually make 1 sometimes 2 trips a year-I am not a high roller but love those slots-I have 2, 5 day 4 nights at either the Mirage or Tres. Island gotta use up b/4 long-I get free room & meals since I have hit them for 2 (decent) jackpots. Guess they want some of it back.
Adrian-thats what happens on most early hunts-feast or famin.
One thing-even if you took ANY Caribou it had to be a good trip.
Glad you got back okay after your 1st experience.

Next time you find yourself over in Vegas, drop me a line before you head over. Hopefully I' ll be in Vegas, and not back up in Alaska hunting or working, and we can have you and the family over for a wild game dinner.
