One hunt in a remote place, without guides, without needs to hurry and with my family, you know from hunting and fishing with the boys to bowhunt big game for myself. So, probably, my dream is close to the big sky and the sounds of the kookaburras in Australia

Dreams in the realm of my hunting... Hmmmm... To be a very proficient and successful hunter with my trad gear, no matter the challenge.

My dream has been granted-I love hunting with my son and only ask that it continue for a few more years!   :notworthy:

I have completed a few dreams so far, raising kids, working 40 years in some interesting jobs to include the Army 1973-1980, played Rugby for 18 years(can still walk), and traveling a fair bit.
But to the future again.........I look forward to retiring in October. Hope to do alot more Hunting,Fishing,Trapping and Landcruising. My wonderful Wife has agreed to do some long Car-camping trips around the country. Up and down the mountain ranges would be nice! I want to develop our 45 acres into a nice recreation area to stay in shape. Lastly, I would like to persue my Master's Degree in BushCraft(Self Taught).LOL
       
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways-BOW in one hand-ARROWS in the other-Body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming-WOO HOO! WHAT A RIDE!

1 of my goals is to learn to flint knapp and do a complete primitive setup and harvest a mature white tail! I'm talking a yew bow, obsidian points on ocean spray shafts! That should do! Then I'll think of another challenge !!

Many of my dreams have been fulfilled, but there is a whole list yet to checkoff!!  Moose, Caribou, Elk, and Buffalo all on the dream list. Property to live on, travel and being a positive influence on all those I encounter. The only thing left when you don't dream is death and many have died long before the grave. I want to keep dreaming and chasing them all my days!!!!

I have one or two hunting dreams.

I want to get that longbeard with my longbow.

An Antelope and an Elk are in there as well.


Other wise my daily goal is to follow His will for my love which means I need to learn to love others especially those I don't like.(challenging) but I know I can do it with His help.

God bless,Mudd

My dreams huh? Well I already shot the elk of a lifetime so that dream doesn't count. A couple others in no particular order: Guide for brown trout in Tierra Del Fuego for a few years, build drift boats for a living, live a life that glorifies God, wind up married with kids here in Montana. Simple suits me.

Going on an elk hunt with my dad. He's 54 and I'll be turning 20 in a couple of weeks. Unfortunately that's still about 3 years out at least. Other than that I'm hoping to go out west for grad school in 2015 and land a fisheries biology job.

I have been truly blessed , I have 4 great kids along with 5 great grandkids . the best Wife in the world who has what every woman wants : a contented husband . I've been on a lot of hunts on 3 continents and have been fortunate to have taken a lot of animals but I still dream of hunts for different game and for species I've already taken . My Goodwife asked me once why I needed to take a second wildebeest since I already had one . My answer was simple , first time I kissed her didn't stop me for wanting to do it again . After all the hunts I've been on I still get just as excited opening day of bow season here and haven't missed one in 46 years now . I might even get more excited now . I try to enjoy everything that comes along and thank God for the bad as well as the good , it's His will .

What is my dream?  

Well.. I am a 24 year old man who has a beautiful wife, a beautiful healthy daughter, a warm place to lay my head, a dog, a few bows, we both have jobs that support us and our simple lifestyle.  I am very pleased with what the Lord has given me, i don't covet what others have, though some have very nice things, nice bows, nice arrows, etc.  

I would love to hunt elk one day. I would love to hunt grouse.  I would love to do a lot of things, but they aren't my dream.  My dream would be to hear, "well done my good and faithful servant", at the end of my life.  That eclipses all other desires for me.
"Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD And whose trust is the LORD. Jeremiah 17:7

"There is a way which seems right to a man,
But its end is the way of death."  Proverbs 14:12

Wow, that pretty much sums it up for me.  

I just wish I realized it at 24.

You made my day, Daniel...thank you.
