A successful hunt begins with thorough preparation,

Kodiak, Alaska--that wondrous mystical island home to the largest brown bears in the world--became my home for an early spring bow hunt in 2012. My #1 bucket list hunt began as a dream that eventually evolved into a reality. For years I read about other hunters, looking at their pictures in magazines as they smiled behind their big bears. I wished it could be me. But I wasn’t sure if I would really be able to make it happen. But, as you can see, that’s me in the picture. Me! I did it! The brown bear in the picture squared 9’6,” scored a 28 5/8” (green) skull, and has superb dark fur that will make a magnificent standing mount. Good thing I have a vaulted ceiling in my man room.

I recently hunted for 10 days in Alaska, I used your bino system and bino sheilds. It rained for 8 of the 10 days, my binoculars stayed dry. I really appreciate your quality gear and I look forward to ordering more hunting gear from you. I was shooting a Christensen Arms 375 ultra mag.

Thanks for all your help.
