Congratulations Randy!   :thumbsup:  I tried to do that from out of state for 14 years and was never successful, so I know how GREAT it must feel.
Awesome story.

Will you use the "skins" again on your bow...been thinking about getting a set?

Randy, what a bull buddy! Congrats on the story, the pics, and most importantly the shot  :)

OK I'll take a guess, I guess: 337...or close to it!

:notworthy:  

Way to go Bud.  Somehow I think you were enjoying packing out that meat in the back of your mind.
Relax,

You'll live longer!
