Well done, Papa. When I got to the afternoon hunt portion of your tale and you wrote you had to keep checking on your girls I told myself you're hooking them into this!
Great pics and a beauty of a buck!

Great story, but will cost you I'm thinking. I know it did my buddy. His wife got into it and the only way he could buy weapons or optics was if she got something also.

The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

Thanks for all the kind words guys, it truly was a blast. So far they have had bacon wrapped backstrap, jerky, summer sausage, stew and peppersticks. To say they are hooked is an understatement and I will soon be fighting for the last of the venison.
Hunt hard, kill clean, waste nothing and offer no apologies.

That sunset pic is unreal. Someone with photoshop skills may be able to get the brush out of the foreground real easy, but regardless, that pick is awesome. Great story and hope they get out next year.
