Bio: After a short stint as a financial trader Cliff left the corporate world to found and operate some of the largest and most remote wilderness outfitting businesses in North America.
Cliff is an avid outdoorsman, pilot and certified wilderness first responder. He has personally guided dozens of big game hunts, while his previous businesses have operated more than a thousand wilderness expeditions. Before pissing them away to become a hunting guide, Cliff earned degrees from Stanford University and University of Chicago’s Booth School of Business.
In NM, most draw once every ten years at best. I’m 33, been putting in since 10. Only hunted deer 1 time and elk 3 times. My dad drew all the time till about 20 years ago. No one knows anyone who draws.
(or just for a butcher breaking a carcase - the steel in the scabbard or on the belt is handier than the back-room sharpening stones. Maybe a rigid strop is incredibly useful too - but al that fat and gore impregnating the leather can't be good. - Appropriate tools for the knife steel is important. Simply going to a "$300" knife, doesn't the better hunter make.. ) All ceramic is harder than the knife you have in your back pocket, so yes it will remove metal. Separating joints, learn the anatomy and cut the ligaments - the joints basically "fall apart" then... ha ha, if a blade is "accidentally" sharpened to a (near) single bevel - the angle will be approaching half that which may be needed (unless you intended to do it - at 25-30 degrees (or whatever the total edge angle you need for a single bevel, is.) ) - sharp, but weak. Users must realise a working knife is a consumable tool, not a multigenerational heirloom.

We have a law where i live in Europe, before going out hunting, you have to get an "OK" from the gamekeeper. You just call him and say "hey, i will go hunt there and there tomorrow" and if someone else wants to go in the same spot to hunt, he will steer them to another spot, to minimize the situation of two hunters shooting in the same area. Or at least he will let you know that the other hunter hunts near by to be careful.
I used to enjoy seafood. Then i heard someone call Lobster, Crab, and other crestations Giant Sea Bugs. I still like Crab Legs... But that pretty much ruined a lot of sea food for me.
I usually do my research on what brand of ammunition is readily available and use that. I use Federal which is always available in a popular caliber of 30-06.
20 days is too long. If you want to see a bear every time you hunt, you should have my wife hunt with you instead of her with me. It’s a bear Every second
In NM you can go pay 4K to get a cow on public land with a unit wide tag given to a private landowner for a public resource that residents only get drawn for once a decade.😅
What are you hunting in north America you need a long rifle for? A short rifle, or better yet a long revolvers gets 3 inch groups at 150 yards with a red dot. You can sneak up to at least 100 yard of pretty much all animals...blw hunters do it all the time close to 50 yards lmao. Shoot something between 100-150 yards and practice having a sub 2 moa group at 100 yard. If you cant close the distance to be at least 100 yards away from target , you got bigger fish to fry.
Cliff nailed it. Camaraderie, adventure, challenge, clean protein . . . these are all benefits, but the REASON I hunt is because I have prey drive. Like Cliff, No, I don't enjoy killing. It is weird that some hunters do.
Dudes, go watch the South Park “Pajama Day” episode. You all lost me as soon as you got all butt hurt and emotional and made wild comparisons. Grow up boys.
Ok I must be missing something here there have been confirmed sightings of grizzly bear about 100 miles from the Colorado border ( few years ago) and apparently they can travel 20 to 40 miles a day. Do they have some strange respect for state borders? Seems to me even if they are not here now they could get way into Colorado within a couple of weeks.
This actually sounds very useful. I might keep an eye on this kind of binos. Though, with the way I hunt, I rarely use binos. Also, do you have any experiences with those scopes that has an inbuilt range finder + solution output (like Burris Eliminator IV?).
The point near the end is the most compelling to me; you would think that some evidence of a Grizzly would be noticed somewhere along it's apparently very long journey to the San Juan's from another state. But it's very fascinating and intriguing regardless.
One thing this video demontrates is that a lot of shooting ranges have horribly unrealistic setups. It can be hard to find a quality outdoor shooting range that lets you move around a lot, go through various obstacles and gives you various options to shoot at long distances from kneeling, standing, prone and back and forth between all 3 positions etc. If I was independently wealthy it sure would be fun to open my own specialized outdoor shooting range/training center...
Here's what I noticed with most hunters. They don't practice enough with the rifle they will go hunt with. Sure they bring it out when hunting season starts, but after hunting season. They just don't practice with it.
Im not sure about your lobster, but crawfish have a sort.of a hooking mechanism where the tail connects to the body. You just unhook that and the tail comes off.
I got a Havalon multi-blade knife as a freebie with a Bushnell Forge scope i bought. It has skinner and fillet blades. Thoughts on that for a knife setup? I also carry a Marokniv fixed blade as my camp/pocket knife.
Hi Cliff, been watching the show for a while and love it. Like the No bullshit about elk hunting. Been hunting out west for 15 years and love it. Have a question that I don't want to post. Is there a way to private message you?
