I submitted this video to Compton Traditional Bowhunters film festival at the Big Game Classic. There are a few highlights from up coming videos depicting my solo moose hunts. Mike

Wow, Mike, thanks for posting this.  Absolutely gorgeous country and congratulations on a great bull. :clapper:

Mike,
   I just saw this short video and a verse that came to my mind as soon as I watched it was from Psalm 46:10 which has a different meaning but still I like to think of it in a different meaning as well.
           “Be still, and know I am God”   
   
   In all these wars against each other in this world we live the solitude we seek you show in your videos of just stopping in our tracks ,breathing the breath of life God gives each of us and just knowing He is the Great “I Am” ....
  His majestic beauty of the mountains,rivers,forests and the creatures walking and grazing upon it are evidence He is our Great Creator and His artistry is right before our eyes if we just stop and listen when He speaks to us .
  Having that silence for a few weeks or months is good medicine that no Dr. can prescribe but only God Himself gives us .
  Thanks for that short video clip and for your time in sharing it with us here.
  May the “Peace of the Wilderness be your escape”.....
   God Bless you Mike .
     Your friend Keefer’s <‘)))><

Well done, thanks for sharing.

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.
