    I would do them all in a heartbeat. Watching Tom Miranda pull off the Super Slam had me wishing I could hit the lotto so I could go after it myself.

    I'm guessing musk ox would be out as well.

    Fred Eichler said the backstraps from a mountain lion are outstanding table fare.

    Mountain lion. Not really interested in waiting for dogs to tree one then walk up to it and shoot.

    There is cold and there is way up there... I do not see myself way up there. Not even in pretend Superslam land.

    Jaguar and walrus aren't part of the super slam. I wouldn't feel right shooting a jaguar with so few left but man I would LOVE to go on a traditional walrus hunt with native Alaskan Inuits... What an awesome life adventure that would be!

    Typical answer. That hunt is far more demanding than most.

    As far as Muskox go... You can bow hunt them early season in Greenland which is a very fair weather hunt.

    To be fair, every mountain lion hunt I've watched makes it seem like it's not that demanding. That is TV though, I'm sure they travel a ways on rough terrain. Can imagine that it's almost impossible to kill one without dogs.

    Still would love to hunt one.

    I'd have to take Freds word for it, I aint eating a cat.

    The dogs would be the best part of that hunt.

    Nope...its still just a cat.

    Everything is possible in the real world, and everything looks easy on the TV.
