A very fun and humbling evening up north at Youth Outdoors Unlimited - Washington Non-Profit presenting a couple of youth with their cow elk shoulder mounts.
Y.O.U focuses on taking youth with disabilities or terminal illnesses on the hunt or fishing trip of their dreams. Not only is it humbling to be a small side-part helping these youth but it amazes me on a level not easily explained how these kids are the so full of life! If anyone had reason to be bitter or mad at the world it is any one of these kids…yet they are so excited, energetic, happy, and very grateful for everything all the while not allowing their disability to limit or define them. Great banquet, incredible people, good food, and hilarious moments with some auction items.

Two bucks, two different species (blacktail and muley), same year, same hunter. These two headed out the door today.
The muley buck is in a semi-sneak pose with the blacktail in a wall-pedestal upright right-turn pose.

Taken a lot of time away from shed hunting this year to keep up the momentum in the shop with projects. We are SLOWLY catching up with mounts and appreciative of everyone’s patience. Be assured, we WILL call you when your project is done so no need to check-in prior.

GET INVOLVED!!!

3 WDFW Commissioner Appointments will be made by Monday, April 7th, by Governor Ferguson.

An announcement is on the horizon, and anti-hunting groups are desperately campaigning for the appointments of previously rescinded Lynn O’Connor and former commissioner, Tim Ragen. The goal of this push is for these groups to continue to have their way with Commission decisions by undermining the interests of rural and sportsmen communities, and to perpetuate preservationist agendas and goals on the commission.
It is in the best interest of the hunting community to express our opposition to these potential and very possible appointments. The appointments of these individuals would be disastrous for sportsmen and our wildlife, an outcome that would be hard to recover from.

Please consider sending emails to Director of External Affairs Jaime Martin ([email protected]), Deputy Policy Director Kenneth Martin ([email protected]), and Natural Resources Advisor Owen Rowe ([email protected]), or calling 360-902-4111 and leaving a message asking for the rejection of these two candidates.

The staunch anti-hunting backing for these individuals tells us a lot about what these individuals represent. We have needlessly lost much opportunity and watched the populations of some of our species degrade due to our Commission crusading for their own agendas. Don’t let the special interest groups that claim to speak for the majority of Washingtonians silence you and continue to speak of you as a minority group that doesn’t matter.

Submit to our email or simply post a question here that me and the Pacific North Wild crew can address in podcast form. Just in time for some spring bear seasons opening up in the next couple of weeks!

Getting prepped for next weeks hunt with my brothers TitanOutdoors and seeing youth learn about hunting, processing, and having fun in the outdoors. This is truly one of my most favorite weeks of the year. This program is truly because of our donors and volunteers.
Ross Sharp Elk Company sent over these tag wallets for the kids this year to include in the incredible package of outdoor/hunting items they each get. Huge shoutout to him and if you guys haven’t seen these tag wallets you NEED ONE! Especially now with most states moving toward paper tag systems. These things have 2 included reusable zip ties with them! I use and love them! Thanks again Ross.
LETS GO Lil’ Titans!

Pretty buck leaving the shop! These grayish colored capes I have an infinity for. Big neck, wide frame, and some notched ears made for one awesome looking mount.
Pose is an upright with a 45-degree right turn….one of my favorites as well. Thank you to the client for the work!

Massive black bear leaving the shop. This big northern boar had some rubbed spots on his arms, however after some dying of the hair and skin it blended nicely. Pose is a 3/4 Mount in a ‘charging’ position. Thank you to the returning client on your trophy!
Between yesterday’s monster bull moose and this bruin the trophy wall looks bare (no pun intended). Next round getting placed for pickup!

03/15/2025

I wish I had something to show to scale how big this moose is, not just his antlers but his body mass! A large bull elk is roughly 32-34” inches behind his head at the neck. This bull is 44” and took the largest form on the market which still had to be modifed!!
Congrats to the hunter on a tremendous Alaskan trophy AND a cool story too!
I wish I could say I hate to see this big brute leaving but I’d be lying….i have so much more wall space now!
