That is absolutely false. Alberta crude is priced on the world market adjusted for quality and transportation costs to market. You don’t think that the oil companies would charge more for it if people would pay more for it??? Cold Lake competes for room in coking refineries with crudes like...

I agree on the travel. I’m 65 and refuse to sit in coach for any flight over 4 hours. On European trips I buy premium select and use global upgrades to fly delta one on the overnight eastbound legs.

I was certainly in that mode for half a dozen years. I’m now diversifying with Western US and European big game hunts. More than anything, I’m getting back to prioritizing my greatest hunting passion, wild birds (the wild part is key, I would just as soon shoot clays as preserve birds)...

Very interesting. We hunted Mururu with Len and my wife killed a bull that had a .375 bullet in it from a previous hunter of Len’s. I’ll ask him if it happened twice. It certainly is curious.

Clearly that is not going to happen. I am not sure our VP would be much different in that seat. I am really impressed with Rubio. I hope he is at the top of the ticket in our next election.

Except these ones hit what they are aiming at and have much greater range.

It would likely help if I included the pic.

Von Gruff made this knife up for me. 3” blade, large handle for good control, secure sheath. I use it every day on the farm. Absolutely perfect knife for me.

I use short blades. Working inside a critter a long blade is a handicap.

Yeah sure Scott, right up until the fight starts, at which point please remember that I’m on your side!!!

We were heading out to meet a buddy to do some predator calling in Delta, AK. Black ice slowed us down so we were late getting there. Our buddy Eddie was acting a little sheepish waiting by his pickup. Apparently he got a little impatient and did one stand near his cabin while he was waiting...

Best of luck in your search. These are handy little scopes, and are tough to pry away from those of us fortunate enough to have them.

The Otavi area. As mentioned above, Jamy would be a great place to start.

I have done tracking hunts for eland in Botswana and Namibia. If I were booking today I would likely book with Bokamoso in Botswana.

Personally I have no use for SCI’s record book or awards program. I believe that they create the wrong incentives in hunting. For me the quality of the hunt and the age of the animal harvested are what matters. My trophies take me back to those hunts. What anyone else thinks of them is...
