What should I hunt.
For my 40th Birthday I am going to give myself a hunting trip. I would like to know what you guy's and gal's would do.
I've hunted Elk, Mule Deer andWhitetails. 40doesn't fall until 2009, I would really love to do a Dall sheep hunt but I think there is a waiting period ( for tags or Outfitters) |
RE: What should I hunt.
I voted moose

Quebec Caribou.
|
RE: What should I hunt.
I voted Moose. Caribou isn't my favorite meat.
|
RE: What should I hunt.
Caribou hunts are more affordable than moose hunts so i say take the moose hunt if you can swing it you may never get to again!!!
|
RE: What should I hunt.
I voted Caribou, because most hunts you can take two animals, and they look like pretty awesome hunts. I believe Moose tastes better though, and if that's your ultimate deciding factor, then I'd say moose, but my personal choice would be Caribou. For Challenge, the Blacktail may make for an excellent hunt, and you could do a blacktail hunt for about HALF or less of the money, and maybe make it a 10-14 day hunt, hunt twice as long, rather than a shorter hunt for a larger game at more money. WOW, decisions, decisions!!!! Elk is on my plate in 2009!!!!

RE: What should I hunt.
I said Caribou. I am planning one for next year (this August, or after their rut). Let us know what you decide.

RE: What should I hunt.
definitly caribou. the meat is better in the later part of season but by then most are begining to lose their antlers. you would also need to decide what kind of caribou you wound want. woodland have bigger bodies, but barren ground have bigger racks. alot of outfitters also offer combo packages so all you need to do is buy the tag while your on your caribou hunt.

Moose,Moose,...And O Yeah.... "Moose"!
Wish I could've gave myself a gift like that for my 40th,......I'm Jellllllly-ous! |
RE: What should I hunt.
I voted Moose...it's what I would do!
|
RE: What should I hunt.
Alaska Moosage - Something new - right.
Although I just went to Texas for my 40th last year and had a blast. I chose Texas for myself, because we have Moose in NH. Not sure where your from, so if you don't have Moose, than Moose it is! |
RE: What should I hunt.
I voted moose. The sheep hunt sounds great, but I hope you are in good shape. Lots of hills to climb and thin air:D

RE: What should I hunt.
I said Caribou simply because at this point in time I have zero interest in hunting moose. Caribou interest me much more. However, if you have a great interest in a moose hunt, that would probably be the way to go. Caribou hunts are easier to come by than moose hunts in AK.

Dan, if you've got a place to hangup the mount- I'd go with the moose hunt. But, if you don't have a gigantic room with cathedral ceilings, you'll have to retrofit your damn house just to hang up the head. LOL
|
RE: What should I hunt.
a moose sure look good on the wall
|
RE: What should I hunt.
I say hunt the Alaskan Moose. Gotta be a great trip alone to just go to Alaska
|
RE: What should I hunt.
I'd go for a snipe hunt. Cheap and very elusive, I'm in my early 30's and I've never seen one. [&:][8D]

RE: What should I hunt.
I'am in good shape I do Elk hunts in Colorado every other year.So I don't think I'll pass out.:D ORIGINAL: hatchet jack I voted moose. The sheep hunt sounds great, but I hope you are in good shape. Lots of hills to climb and thin air:D Hatchet Jack |
RE: What should I hunt.
I already did the tear out the ceiling bit for my Elk. I would more than likely hang it at my cabin.

RE: What should I hunt.
You can hunt sheep in Canada without having to draw a tag I believe. However, moose would be my #1 anyway. There is something about having to shoot up at something that is appealing to me.
No matter what you hunt, best of luck! |
RE: What should I hunt.
aligator

RE: What should I hunt.
I have always wanted to go on a caribou hunt. So thats what I would go with
|
RE: What should I hunt.
I've never been to Alaska and hunting moose there would just be icing on the cake.
|
RE: What should I hunt.
Caribou is either feast or famine. If the migration timing is off you have to be satisfied spending your time fishing because the caribou will be miles away. I'd choose moose or caribou. I've seen both and moose in Ak didn't strike me as that big a challenge, but I haven't hunted either so I can't say for sure. Talk to people who have done both and see which style of hunting appeals to you more.

go get a moose.

RE: What should I hunt.
moose

RE: What should I hunt.
i'd go kill a gator. it's fast-paced, and it's out of the norm.
|
RE: What should I hunt.
MOOSE!!! no competition it would be moose their big, their mean, and their a challenge
|
RE: What should I hunt.
I've been fortunate to have Elk, Various Deer, Caribou, Black Bears & more BUT never made the Moose. Now in my later yearsI wish I had went on a Newfoundland Moose & Caribou combo. Good luck in your decision.
