What is everyone else taking??? Show us Guys.
Dang Bubba that is a nice quiver ya got on the Limited. Are ya using my arrow travel tubes? No prob if you are just make sure my stone tipped arrows are put somewhere safe. Remember ya gotta keep your gear at 70#,LOL

Nakohe, some things in life are just Cool, your set-up is one of them. enjoy the hunt.
DesertDude........
Nakohe is so pumped,I wouldn't be surprised if he just show's up with a bow in his hand and a knife in his mouth. :) Those are some nice arrow's.
I'm taking Black Mamba, the same Schafer I took my black bear with...and my faithful, deadly Zipper TD as backup.
AD Nitro Stingers and AD Traditionals respectively, all tipped with 160 grizzlies tanto-ed on the tips and sharp enough to scare a barber who plays with a straight razor all day.
Well I'm taking all of you all
woops I hit the enter key before I was finished. I hope My new bow is in before we head north.
If not then its a Stotler longbow and Gold Tip arras and snuffer heads.
If the new bow makes it in I hope that it will get an opportunity to shine and be given a name from this hunt.
allow me to finish my first statement so it does not sound arrogant. Well I'm taking all of you guys along to share this hunt with and if I dont get a caribou just getting to share a camp with you all is going to be fine for me. Nothing like being with kindred souls that enjoy the same things.
I am really getting pumped and excited about it.
Man them is some pretty arras Nakohe. Be even prettier with a tint of red on them.
I'm glad to be "taken" CJ..any time!!!! Really looking forward to the hunt, bud.
Guys , have great and blessed hunt!!! :wavey: :thumbsup:
The bou wont have a chance, theyll stare in awe.Good luck.
Very nice setup, looks like it will do the trick, but not only that, it will do it in style!!!!! Very nice looking arrows Danny!!!
I am impressed
Good Luck on the Hunt
Jake
Thanks Guys,
Mike, I am pumped and will probably have a knife in my mouth.LOL
C.J. It is us that are honored to share a camp with you and other noteables like Ray, Bob Walker and the like. Hope you get your new bow in.
Danny I bought me a new travel tube, so your flint tips are safe. LOL. BTW those forgewoods will look good with some more red on them. I hope to bloody one.
Ray I am looking forward to meeting you.

Yah Ray, I heard you were easy! :goldtooth:
Don, those arrows are spectacular! Oh, and the bows are ok too :D
VERY NICE!! Donny! Practice shooting in the wind and some walking speed shots. Those caribou seldom stand still for more than a short moment.
You guys are gonna have a GREAT time! Best Wishes to all of you.
I have been trying to think of a name for my Blacktail, nothing has come up yet. Hopefully an appropriate name will arise. If I am successful, maybe "Bou Slayer" since that will be first blood for her.
With the attiitudes I see reflected in these posts, your hunt is already a success! I fell in love with the "north country" on my first visit and I had to go back. Reitremnet is just 6 or 8 years away and I wil make the trip north again, but in the meantime my "hunters spirit" will be with you all every step of your journey. Hunt hard, hunt safe-Mike
This sounds like a whale of a hunt. Be sure and take lots of photos so those of us that can only dream can somewhat share in the experience. Have a safe and enjoyable hunt and somebody stick something.
