    Wolverine, not the red dawn kind or the x man.

    Wolverines are rarely sighted even up here in Alaska. I've only seen a wolverine on 2 different occasions in 30 years...both while sheep hunting in the high country. Neat animals.

    Debt Ceiling Agreement

    Gas stoves illegal is fake news. On the other hand, a natural gas pipeline has benefits of cleaner energy relative to coal, and a reliable heating source for thousands of homes on the east coast.

    Debt Ceiling Agreement

    There is an agreement finally. McCarthy said the House will vote Wednesday, which would then send the bill to the Senate. Once the bill reaches the Senate, where Democrats have the majority, the pace of action could slow if senators try to hold up the bill, possibly with amendment votes. That...

    The Other SCOTUS Ruling

    The Supreme Court will soon issue rulings, on affirmative action, student debt relief, and the First Amendment and gay rights. The student loan will be interesting since it has been paused for three years and 8 extensions! The New York Times is not happy: Public approval of the court is at a...

    How to lead a goose

    For incoming shots, angle make a difference. If the bird is coming in but the angle is 45 degrees or less, butt, belly, beak, bang! If you wait too long and the bird is directly overhead, a much greater lead is required.

    2023 big game plans

    For the first time in 40 years, no big game hunting for me. 30 years of hunting sitka blacktails, sheep, bear, caribou and moose in Alaska spoiled me. In Alaska, most tags were free and over the counter, no hassle of drawing. Sheep, caribou, black bear in August, Moose in Sept, sitka blacktails...
