Fantastic hunt!!! Looks like the redwood forests in Northern California and Oregon, along the coast. Wow what a trip  :)

Thanks for letting us share in your joy of the country and hunt.

I really need to give some serious consideration to going on vacation to visit my sister who lives in New Zealand. I think I'll wait until she and her husband get their new home built. I'd hate to think of leaving them putting on shingles while I go for a walkabout hunting stag..lol

God bless,Mudd

Very cool hunt and pictures!!! Congratulations!!!  :thumbsup:
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.
