is in the books.

Had a decent year, hope to do as well in 2013. All of the hunts this year were DIY Public land except for the Muskox.

Started in Alaska in February for muskox with a good friend, 2 record book bulls for our efforts:

Congrats Buzz as you had a banner year for yourself and sharing in the success of family members.

Darn nice pics by the way and good luck in 2013. Although I don't think "luck" had much to do with your 2012 success.

As a young guy from the southeast I can say that you have just accomplished in a year what I hope to do in a lifetime of hunting. Way to go Buzz!
