Utah Elk
Willi Schmidt won a Utah Elk tag in a raffle at the Western Hunting and Conservation Expo in February 2017. Not knowing the unit and not being able to put boots on the ground prior to the hunt, he reached out to several people, all who were willing to help with the hunt. The first morning of the hunt started well with a bull bugling in the basin but would the hunt be over before it really got started?

Alaska Moose
Like most hunters, a bucket list hunt for Host, Willi Schmidt was an Alaska moose hunt. When he was approached by Icy Bay Lodge, primarily a guided fishing operation, to be transported to hunt moose, he jumped at the chance. The rules are pretty strict for transporters and that type of hunt was just what Willi loves. The conditions were tough with lots of rain prior, but it would only take one moose to to fulfill this bucket list hunt. Willi’s good friend, Randy Peck joins him on this hunt.
