There were no big game hunters or guns for that use in my family.
I always had the desire and grew up on 'fiftys outdoor mags and developed the dream of someday hunting the Rockies with the "ultimate" rifle, a 30-06
Life got in the way for a while but I gradually got the time and taught myself as much as I could
One day after a lot of years I found myself in Colorado hunting Elk. I had pretty much got past the 30-06 dream but I remembered I had one in the truck, went back and got it, and finally lived the dream.
I made sure my kids got the chance to start early and taught them as much as I could.
Their skill has long since surpassed mine but the joy of being out there with them keeps me going.
