If you hunt long enough you're going to consider chasing after elk. It's just a part of the maturing process of a big game hunter. Planning such a hunt takes quite a bit of work. Elk are earned the hard way. You have to go into their country and weather their storms- literally. If you want to be able to stay on the mountain long enough to achieve one of the ultimate goals for every big game hunter, you will need the right gear that will allow you to stay there. Alex Gruin of East 2 West Hunts has been hunting elk for a long time and he shares his knowledge on what you need for the different elk season each fall.

Bowfishing is one of the most exciting activities to enjoy in the outdoors. The combination of hunting and fishing and the technical skill required make it that way. But while standing on the edge of the water with a bow in hand it's easy to wonder, "How can this be more purposeful than just killing rough fish for the excitement?" Mathew Schillinger of AMS bowfishing weighs in on this episode of pickin' bones to discuss this very topic.

One of the craziest and coolest animals in North America is the mighty musk ox. These shaggy critters once roamed throughout much of the continent, but today they are only found around the Arctic Circle. Alex Gruin is one of the most experienced hunters I know and he made the incredible effort to go and chase down a trophy bull in Alaska.

The terms "hunters" and "anglers" are often paired together with a certain level of equivalence as the two main options for folks who like to get their food off the land, but there is a third option. The center of Venn Diagram if you will. That third option is bowfishing. Bowfishing is ancient discipline that combines the best parts of archery hunting and fishing. Mathew from AMS Bowfishing joined me to talk about this great outdoor activity.
