Very cool!!!  :thumbsup:    :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.

The thing about a hunting story is that they are timeless...no matter how long ago they occured or how many times the tale has been told, it is always good to hear again.

Congrats on a "butt kicking hunt"!!!
