Great job with the hunt and story, I'm proud of you.

What a pleasure it was to share it with this crowd.  Somebody who's been here let me know when my feet might touch the ground again.    :campfire:

What a fantastic story.  Well told in both picture and word.  Congrats and thanks!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Julian,

Just Awesome!!!  

My forge is finished in Aiken and I've duplicated my shop...anvil, forge, grinder, etc.  Just need to move it all down.  It seems fitting that we need to meet up and forge a Duckbutt Elk Skinner this winter.  You don't want to be begging Lil' D for her knife every time you go hunting!  Maybe something like my Bear Skinner would be more appropriate...NO Pink Cord    ;)    tippit
