I hunted with Homer Ocean last year and we had a great hunt. It was my second trip to Kodiak and after two starkly contrasting experiences, I will offer this bit of advice:
-Being on a boat was much better than a cabin or lodge.
There was much more mobility to hunt different areas of the island. Especially as a bowhunter, it was nice to not have to hunt the same 4 square miles that 47 other rifle hunters had covered for the past two months.
-Be in great shape.
Kodiak is a tough island. It is not for the ill-conditioned. If the snow level is 2000 foot or higher, you will be climbing everyday. And the terrain can be nasty.
All that being said, it is an amazing place. If you have good weather on the float plane out to hunt, it is almost worth the price of the entire hunt. The deer are not hard to hunt. It is the weather and terrain of the island that makes this hunt difficult. If you get a little help from the island, and there is a good populationg of deer on the island, you will have a blast!
I will personally make this hunt every few years until I can no longer move.
Good luck!
