    CANADA: Polar Bear Hunt Nunavut Canada

    Shane Black is a great guy. And your comment about having a positive attitude is such good advice, particularly for the arctic. I stay on with my guide after a hunt there and what I learned about the people and their lives was life changing. You really did have a great adventure. Congratulations...

    What an amazing experience! Congratulations! Did you have an outfitter?

    Psyching yourself up? Or not

    I agree! My choice for my PH for my upcoming buffalo was based on trust. I have hunted a few times with @KMG Hunting Safaris and I know he sweats the details. So far my prep has been like all my hunts - obsessing about my loads, reading and watching videos. Visualization of the hunt and dry...

    Psyching yourself up? Or not

    When hunting dangerous game do you psych yourself up? Do you spend time getting mentally ready, or do you just have breakfast and head out? Is it a different mental process than any other important hunt? Game day or holiday?

    on a lighter note...

    It’s along HWY 11. They have upgraded the sign and there is a place to stop. Progress!

    Trump has always been in the media and like splashy projects. I wonder whether his inclination to put on a big show has hampered the otherwise worthy policies of his administration.

    Quick Release / Quick Disconnect Scope Mounts - Do You Use Them?

    I put Recknagel detachable mounts on two of my rifles - my 400 H&H was the first. I loved the setup so much I put one on my 308 Norma Mag. The latter has a pop-up peep which I like to shoot with occasionally so it works nicely. The 400 was with the idea of using irons. However, in all honestly...

    I just searched my email, and I did not receive one from the RCMP. ……checking the validity of my PAL…… …….whew! Wait, now I feel like the guy who didn’t get invited to the class party. What gives here?!?

    I picked up a copy. Should make for a fanciful diversion. It’s not like anyone would actually believe this stuff!

    As a leader he has to own that, no doubt. One thing I heard in that speech was a return to riding associations nominating and electing the representatives. I think the habit of appointing the rep is something that was first developed in the later 80s. A useful read is Eugene Whalen’s book...

    I have heard others say that, but where does that come from? I think it is interesting how the story of his likability is accepted because I don’t see it in this speech, or any other speech where he has the chance to talk. I see him being very confrontational about set piece questions where he...

    Here is the current leader of the opposition Conservatives at his leadership review. He took 87.4% of the vote. I don’t get the common belief that he isn’t leadership material. His father is gay, his wife is an immigrant, his daughter is autistic, and he has pledged not to change the abortion...
