Also waiting on Tique to post.  

My knees are just now returning to normal, but would not change anything about the hunt for the world.   :campfire:

Couple weeks to recover isn't bad.  I think I pulled the last thorn from Sweat '06 about 3 weeks ago...

Congrats on a fine hunt guys, and thanks again for sharing. It would be nice to make all of these hunts every year but work and family obligations make you pick and choose.

Great pics, especially the one of the ram on the skyline.

I just heard from Tique.  His brother-in-law passed away 2 days after our return from Texas and he is down in Florida without the ability to post pictures and decent internet access.  He promissed to update his stories and share pictures when he returns.
I sent on our prayers and condolences to he and his family.

Yep, I'm slow some days. I just figured out the "G2 Sweaters" thread had nothing to do with clothes.  :rolleyes:  I was trying to figure out why anyone would want to buy a sweater this time of year.   ;)

Sorry guys , my pics turned out horrible. Dont worry JC that good one I took of you was on a different camera than that little one I borrowed.
Yes Brian it would be nice to make 20 of these hunts a year but , obligations take over.
Guess we are blessed that we have so many great things to do with so many great people to do it with.

OK......I sent Tom on his way....to another herd about 200 yards away that had no idea just what had happened only moments before...and he lit out.

I checked on him several times and saw he was making some serious headway getting into position.

I lost sight of him for a bit, and as I was taking my final pics I heard rocks a rollin.  I looked up and saw Tom in hot pursuit of a ramblin herd.  I was hoping that Kid Kryptonite has arrowed a goat........and he had.  

   

Its really cool when you and your hunting partner double.     :thumbsup:

Stay tuned for an interesting field dressing find!!!!!

Terry,  If you think of Tom as Kid Kryptonite now, You should see him carry a bear (not field dressed!) out of the rain forests of Quebec on his shoulders!  You can't even keep up with him just carring your bow!  His goal is to carry my 300# bear out...humm I just need to find that one  :)   Doc

Sorry I'm so late with my "Sweat" post; I told Joe (Whip) I would chime in when I could. I just finished reading the 19 pages of posts and there is not much I can say that has not already been said about this hunt. Although I did not bloody an arrow it was great hunt; from the night we all met in Del Rio until the day we all left for home it was just plain fun.


 
1st afternoon view from below.

 
I passed this flower several times; had to stop and get a picture.

 
2nd day on the way to the top with Joe and JC.

 
View from the top; black dot (bottom center) is a sheep.

 
Stalked these sheep most of the day, no shots but lots of fun.

The last day I teamed up with Mel (Irish); I'll tell that story tommorrow.
Untested ideas are not facts.
