Dream hunts!
« on: April 19, 2007, 03:56:00 PM »
I know we all have one or several(most likely several) that if we had the time and money to go on we would.  For me a bighorn sheep or goat hunt in the rockies would be a hunt that dreams are made of. What's your dream hunt? Cheers, Matt

Elk bugling among quaking golden aspens on the edge of a mountain meadow filled with blue lupine and the air full of oxygen and me being able to hike without any effort and at the shot of the arrow everything would go in slow motion and the elk would fall within sight.  Miraculously a pack team would show up and butcher and pack the elk out and I'd return to camp for a gourmet meal of fresh elk steaks and go to sleep to do it all over again.


What?.... You did say DREAM hunt?

“instinctive archery” is more like playing the violin. Without practice you may remember the mechanics, but you will not be a virtuoso.

My dream hunt used to be elk in the Rockies. In 2004 I did that. Now there's a beautiful tanned elk hide on my wall to remind me how much I want to go do it again. I've still got a few packages of elk steaks that I'm hoarding in the freezer.

Another dream hunt of mine was to hunt wild, free-range hogs anywhere they live. Last summer I added that to my list of "been there done that" hunts thanks to Curtis Kellar and Charlie Lamb. That was a hunt I'll not soon forget.

Within three months of returning from chasing pigs in South Texas, a good friend of mine and I were on our way to Northwest Ontario to try our luck at hunting bull moose during the rut. The good Lord smiled on me then too. I can honestly say the happiest moment I've ever had as a bowhunter was when I heard the my bull go down.

Just for good measure I also took several ruffed and spruce grouse with my recurve while in Ontario, which was another longtime dream of mine.

What's next? I've still got some unsettled business with mule deer, and I've always wanted to hunt black bears...preferably in Alaska. But to be honest, I'm always anxious to hunt anything I've never seen and anywhere I've never been.

(1) Elk anywhere.
(2) Anything in Alaska.

Kinda hate to answer these because it just reminds me that they probably will never happen.

At this point I have only hunted whitetails in my home state, Alabama. While the whitetail action here is very good, I want to go west and hunt mule deer and elk. Once I've done that, I'll think about my next dream hunt.

Dream hunt that will happen in the next couple of years...buffalo and other species in Australia and Africa.

Dream hunt of real crazy dreams, Marco Polo sheep and the "TIME" and money to really make that happen.
