Way to go Zach. I know how difficult it is to guide a father as I still have to guide mine quite a bit. A great accomplishment calling in such a fine bull for your Dad and getting him to be still long enough to get a good shot off.

Nice job Chris on closing the deal and not wasting your guides efforts  ;)    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

Thanks everyone for the congrats. Someone asked about tackle - I have always hunted with my own self or BBO bows. Built a BBO bow for this purpose of 65#. I also picked up a used Robertson longbow of 60# as a backup which worked well since it was the same length (64")and very similar grip. Ended up needing to use the backup. Arrows were cedar with 2 blade magnus.

I'm betting on having good hunting partners for as long as I can keep going.(Pic from several years back- Zach is the oldest on far left)
