hammerdown's video thread led me to this one. Having recently returned from a hunt with my son, this one spoke to me;

Awesome. My respects to you and your father.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

Another wonderful video. Now too my workout which hopefully will keep in good enough shape to allow me to do such and endeavor 8 years from now at the age of 72. Did notice the seniors Huskamaw scope.

Damned dust in here...

Breathtaking country, and an exceptional story.

His Dad is one tough ol' bird. He's got 20+ years on me, and was gettin' around far better than I do with a heavy pack.

Great video story. Loved he was rockin' the Huskemaw - a great optic which doesn't get much love on the Campfire.

ChrisF: Thank you for sharing that great Hunting video with the Campfire!
I greatly enjoyed it.
Some of the photography (NO... a LOT of the photography!) in that video was WORLD CLASS!
I have been on a number of 10 day Mt. Goat Hunts and can only imagine the effort and weariness those two men endured!
Good for both of them on the gargantuan effort and wonderful reward they came by/earned.
Thanks again.

If I had unlimited funds I can think of no better way to spend money then on sheep hunting.

I was fortunate enough to go on a successful sheep hunt with my father when inwas 15. We both took nice rams, which is remarkable given my dad had broken his ankle 5 months before the hunt and was unable to walk on anything but flat ground. I shot my ram after hiking all over heck. When we got back to camp with full packs my dad was smiling and said you have one more to pack out pointing up the side of the mountain behind our spike camp. While we were out dad noticed a nice ram on the side of the mountain while he read a book. He ended up staggering over to where he could take a clear shot and took the ram with a very long shot using a 30-06 and kentucky windage.

That's a good story too and made me think of my ol' man! Bad ankle, or no, he'd have still sent me to pack it. laugh

WOW! What a great hunt and story. Your dad said it was the best hunt of his life and I bet you can say the same. Thanks for sharing it.
