Being a poor boy, I have only killed White Tails, but that is all I have hunted. In my early days, I always wanted to hunt the big Grizzlies. I still have that yearning, although physically not able to even think about it at this point. I always thought that this time of my life would be when I could make it happen financially. But when back injuries several years ago cut my career short, as well as my physical ability to go on such a hunt, my dream was shot.

I had opportunities to go on mule deer, elk, and pronghorn hunts; they just never appealed to me.
