Awesome story and a truly prize wolf!! That will look good in your home also.
JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H

Outstanding! Now come on over to Idaho where you can get two more tags! Idaho Elk Hunter beat me to it. Good hunting! L.W.

Very impressive and good hunting! Some time in the last year I remember reading, somewhere, that a German Shepherd can apply ~750 lbs per sq inch with it's jaws and that the grey wolf can double that at 1500 lbs per sq in. Each time I see one of these beasts and look at the head, that info seems very possible.

Very cool and congrats! I can only imagine the emotions when you found the fresh sign...I would think the senses become quite aware and acute to everything. Wow...the memories of that experience won't soon be lost.
