If it was easy, what would be the point?
That being said, it is all worth it!!!
All the work, and preperation, practice, thinking, hoping, trying, failing, and "FINALLY"
it happens.
In the end, there is no finer trophy anywhere.
A more well deserved, enjoyed, or appreciated trophy cannot be found.
Hats off to you, along with a sincere, heartfelt, congratulations. Bowhunting at it`s best!!!
You mentioned it may not make the cover of NAW.
I guarantee you, that there is a bretheren of fellow bowhunters just like you...AND me, who would disagree. As I said, a finer trophy, OR one more well deserved does not exist!
