Black Widow bows all come with a 14 strand FF string. So you are good to go.

  Congratulations on your harvest. A fine hog indeed.

Glad to hear that the meat is good. I doubt that we would be hunting them during the rut, but I guess there's always a possibility of it. Did you guys fly your meat home or have it shipped? My buddy and I both shot mule deer this fall on a hunt that we flew out for, and were debating flying it all back until we saw the prices to do it. It ended up costing about the same just to extend the rental on the vehicle and drive home. Not that we'd be driving back from Alaska or anything.

I've got a meeting scheduled with an AK biologist today after work so I'm hoping to get some decent information as far as what condition the herds are in, areas to focus on, and any other general recommendations that they may have. I've also started a list of flying services and DIY outfitters to contact, so I will begin getting in touch with them as well.

Here's a picture from last year of the same boar that I chased, that Joe is now chasing...

No, all cancelations were weeks before the storm.

Welllllllll sh****. I hunted north of Laredo in Eagle Pass for ten years on 60k acres and that is some very special country indeed. Deer unlike anything you've seen naturally free ranging. Please announce the 2027 when you know something and I'd second the deposits.

Thank you so much my friend! I will fosho add it to the list!

No you didn't! I spent the night at the LaQuinta Inn the night before arrival day.

I was talking about the snowstorm Terry.  Sorry for the miscommunication.

I can't find anywhere on this thread where someone's talking about a snowstorm.

you must have been sick that week Terry.

here ya go... That's why i was asking  if it was effecting cancellations for the Laredo hunt on the other thread.

No. They were cancelled weeks before the storm was ever thought of.

Stick with the FF string.
