My name is Charly Culbertson and I have held a guide’s license in Alaska since 1984. For many years I have worked both the spring and fall seasons to give me the combined experience of twenty-five seasons in Alaska alone. I have also guided and escorted hunters in the lower 48, Canada , Australia, and Russia. Up to 165 days a year have been spent afield hunting for wild sheep, moose, caribou, elk, antelope, whitetail and mule deer, wolves, and grizzly, brown and black bears and buffalo. In addition to many “good ‘ol boys”, I have guided celebrities, writers and pro staffers to hundreds of big game trophies. Some of these big game trophies have been captured on sportsmen’s’ videos and television shows. I have been featured, photographed and quoted in top hunting magazines like, Petersen's and The American Hunter and other N.R.A. publications. Most recently, I have joined the Redhead Pro-Field Staff at the Bass Pro Shops in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Most of my adult life has been spent in the hunting industry with most of my friends being fellow guides, hunters and outfitters. My advice and opinions on hunts, guns, gear and gadgets comes from years of hands-on experience hunting in some of the wildest country and harshest environments in the world. If you have questions, need advice from a professional hunter, or want assistance in booking a hunt, I am happy to help. If I cannot help you, I will steer you towards someone who can.
