Thanks Pat.  I was worried I might jinx myself with the naming of my new bow but it turned out just the opposite.

Congrat's! Mark.........Nice Bull.

It's a great feeling, isn't it? I shot my first on Thursday last week....guess we both are now in the minority.

great stuff and thats a great bull!  I can remember that feeling of first trad bull too.  You'll never forget it.   Sounded like a good  hunt, thanks for taking the time to write it all up.  Its always intriguing to hear how others do it, how they spend their days on the mountain.
