Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire To Kill a Bison...

In America, we're free to do things like read, or not read--or be a dickhead, as we've seen on display here a number of times. Funny, but I can't recall your posting anything here outdoors related in a few years now. I think you need to go shoot yourself an iguana or something and try to get your head right. You can call it therapy.

Thanks to all for following along and the words of congrats. I'm glad some of you enjoyed it. I'm going to follow up with some more pics and a few words (was that a collective groan I just heard? )

KG,
Great read about a great adventure!

You, sir, have a true talent for writing.

Thanks for sharing.

“’The best thing about hunting and fishing,’ the Old Man said, ‘is that you don’t have to actually do it to enjoy it. You can go to bed every night thinking about how much fun you had twenty years ago, and it all comes back clear as moonlight.’” — Robert Ruark

Congrats! Enjoying this thread.

No. The last guy it was sent to simply never passed it along for whatever reason. I've asked him to do so several times and it never happened, so I'm done asking.

Alright! That's quite an adventure and a total team effort.

Congrats all around!

Just remember that anyone can can go outdoors anytime.

But coming across as a thin skinned douche bag is eternal.

LOL

Yarn of the year as far as I am concerned. Well done, all.

I-G-U-A-N-A-S.

Can you ever turn off the impulse to be a dick on here?

I don't think this clip will play in this format, but it was kind of bizarre to see the bison's flank muscles quivering and contracting like crazy in this short vid. It was taken at least an hour after the bison died. Only time I've ever seen similar was with a 'gator I killed years ago in FL. After that animal's spine was severed with a chisel and his brain mushed by a .357 mag load, he whacked me across the small of my back with his tail as I was putting in the CITES locking tag in. That was an hour after we got him on the boat.

So it's back in gophergummer's hands, eh?

Glad you had a successful and enjoyable hunt, K.G. I enjoyed your narrative and pictures. That looks like one helluva skinning job!

L.W.

Well, that's that I guess.

Looks like you had a great time and will have memories and meals aplenty. Not much more a person can ask for out of recreational time.

Love it when a plan comes together.

Congrats to all y’all. Well done and well written story.

Thanks.

DUDE!

Biology in action.

I love it.

Cool scheidt.

This has been as good as it was waiting for another episode of Longmire to hit the airwaves.

I wish I had friends to take me hunting😞 nugget sad right now..

Thanks for taking the time to pull all this together -- pictures and story. Excellent.
