That’s an awesome hunt. I don’t believe it gets any better than that. Way to go buddy. Too damned cool!

Nice to read the girls were motivated to hunt and participate in all the "festivities". Good for you, Dad!

Fantastic and congrats! I too was 12 for my first elk hunt with my dad. We basically had a nice walk around the mountains with our rifles but the company, and experience, was great!

Good deal!
My 12 year old had a youth cow tag this year but we were unsuccessful. We had some good times and close calls but couldn’t capitalize.

Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.
