I had a friend in Alaska who shot a number of BIG (68" was his last) bulls but they were all double brow tines. Finding the complete package in one rack can be a challenge. This whole once in a lifetime adds even more pressure.

T_Inman Campfire Ranger Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 20,193	I appreciate that Akbob...but I am used to it I put in for 23 hunts this year, and about as many last year and most other year since I was in my teens. I have only drawn that moose tag and one hard to get deer tag. I'll take what I can get without complaint...general deer and elk, plus some easy antelope draws... I did finally draw a decent (~25% odds) caribou tag in Alaska this year, so I got that going for me.
