Skeet:

Thanks a bunch. Does any one out there have a gunsmith that they would recommend? I have been up here for a long stretch and don’t have a lot of contacts in the Gunsmithing area. I think that you are right about restoring it to original condition.

Caribou numbers:

WACH was as high as 500,000 back in 2003-2004 and has dropped off about 100,000 animals due to a tough winter and predators. The Porcupine, 40 mile. Mulchana and the Nelchina herds have all had serious crashes in the past 10 years. That is why most hunters who are serious about seeing lots of animals and lots of trophy bulls come up here. I operate a outfitting/trip planning business here in Kotzebue and do a lot of work with hunting and fishing groups. We have seen our numbers of hunters level off over the past 3 years which is good. I don’t like the idea of volume hunting but working with select groups setting up quality drop and float hunts as well as float fishing trips into the south side of the Brooks Range. It is much more enjoyable to work with smaller groups who are interested in a quality experience.

Thanks a bunch for the info and any one out there want ro pass on a nasme of a good smith I would appreciate it a bunch!

Paul Jaeger in Pa. Don't remember the address but it was near Philadelphia.. Probably out of business now.. But someone could make a set of claw mounts for you.

As far as the caribou numbers they always seem to fluctuate a fairly large amount due to weather and predation..man and beast
