Somewhere over the rainbow -- back from the land of Oz (Chapter One)
« on: June 16, 2011, 12:18:00 AM »
Well, I just got back last night with my buddy Doug Burns from a great traditional bow hunt down under that was outfitted by TradGang sponsor Trophy Bowhunts Australia and guided by our own Andy Ivy and Mick Baker. Those guys set up a nice camp and worked their tails off. I am still beat from the long trip home and all the work that was waiting for me when I got back, so you will have to wait a little while to know what happened. I need to load up some pictures and show you some of the sights of the outback in the beautiful Northern Territory of Australia. More tomorrow evening.      :readit:       :dunno:

While Andy and I have never actually met, we have PM'd several times and I have many of his posts.

I am compelled to say that 'I love hunting with Trad Tusker'. The vivid stories, enjoyable communications and thought provoking pics seem to actually place me there with him.

Looking forward, with very interested anticpation to your story, sharing of the camp and splendid pics.

I just loaded up the pictures last night that I will be posting. That took awhile and I ran out of time to post the stories. Here is the start. Doug and I are sitting in the airport on May 31 waiting for our plane in Oklahoma City that will take us on to Los Angeles, Sydney, and then Darwin. We will spend the next 40 hours without resting except on the plane. Notice our Kuiu "look". If you can't be the part, at least look it! We were really excited in anticipation of the hunt, but not looking forward to the long travel. I am the guy without the beard.

 

 

Off to work now. Much more to come later.
