I remember hunting country like that in the '70's, when I was in my 20's in NE Oregon. Hellashishly steep. We had a system worked out with a truck, LOTS of rope and several guys with CB radios to haul the deer up the slope.
That is a fantastic hunt you got there and, wow, what a shot!

How come their faces are blacked out? Are they famous? Wanted by the law? Space aliens?

oh yeah we also were using the "target" bullets on everything before the "hunting" bullets came out , they are deadly as well The original target bullets are the hunting bullets. The ones now labeled target have heavier jackets.

David - could be as simple as "Honey - the church is having a week-end retreat for the men...can I go?". Now, I'd consider a week-end in that country getting closer to the maker. Being with friends, participating in "team" activities, also good for you. BTW - don't think they're "space aliens" as neither looks like Tommy Lee Jones or Will Smith. Can't speak for the bull however. Regards, Homesteader.
