Weatherby & HUSH Caribou Hunt: North Slope Caribou

Back in Alaska for caribou a second time and this time we're joined by our good friends from the HUSH crew! Casey, Brian, and Logan join Luke and Mack for another adventure on the North Slope of Alaska. Tough weather and a slow migration make for a more challenging hunt than the year before but that doesn't stop the guys from having a great time.

Was just up by Prudhoe Bay and did a diy Caribou hunt 7 miles off the Dalton 3 weeks ago. It was fun.

[@levicoulter3030]

Thats awesome man! I'm planning a trip up there for next year, did you have any luck?

[@gethushin]

Awesome time with great people. Loved the edit, Mack! Let's go do that again 🙌🏻

[@weatherby]

For sure, good luck up there this year guys!

Casey pre making dinners is so nice. That's the guy you want in camp. I went on a hog hunt last year in the very southern part of MO and we over spent and under utilized our only walmart run of the trip. So this year, for that same trip, I ended up premaking and freezing our dinners!

Used the Weatherby Backcountry 2.0 in 6.5 rpm btw

I love watching Eric Clapton hunt a.k.a. Brian. As we say in my camp “kill a big one“.

I own a weatherby hush edition in 6.5-300 wby. Action definitely isn't as smooth as my mark v rifles but it is definitely lighter in weight. I upgraded the trigger to a timney trigger got it down under 2lbs and now it's a great rifle to carry long distances. Accurate and low recoil 👍👍

From all the Alaska hunts i have seen…it rains a ton in Alaska. I spent 7 days there and the one day it didn’t rain was awesome, if you could only control the weather, paradise

[@justindownes7578]

Great video. Thanks for posting this. It is always nice to see the struggle as well as the success in these videos! It puts the whole hunt in perspective!

[@greghertzberg6220]

Just is another raging cool place in ak. Muskox, caribou and grayling, I am in!!

[@pedrojsanchezalvarado5569]

Elegante arma de cazerias amigos 👌👍

[@patrickburgmeier7902]

A Leatherwood ART automatic ranging trajectory scope would've help take the guess work out of ranging. A Vortex or a Leopold with a Horus Tremor III scope would've worked too.

What are your recommendations for boots? What works and what didn't? I'm going for caribou September 1st 2023.

[@weatherby]

There's a lot of different opinions on which boot might be best for Alaska, the only surefire answer we've found so far is find a good way to dry them.

Learn the difference between horns and antlers

[@Coldsweepinc]

What model pack raft did you guys use for this trip?

[@weatherby]

Alpacka Rafts!

[@Coldsweepinc]

@@weatherby Do you know what model or size) of Alpacka raft you used?

[@lukethork]

@@Coldsweepinc We used The Mule - www.alpackaraft.com/products/mule

[@gogali666]

How thick are caribou hides compared to whitetail deer/elk/moose?

[@weatherby]

Not as thick as elk or moose for sure. Probably very similar to deer.

[@nmelkhunter1]

If I might help, my uncle lived in Alaska and would successfully hunt them with a 280 Remington using 140 Partitions leaving the barrel a little over 2950 fps. I hope that helps.

[@d4nzlt591]

Did these dudes leave the meat on the ground !!??!!

[@weatherby]

No, we had a meat pole back at camp to hang it from and get some air on it
