What a terrific story. Thanks for the time you spent sharing your words and pictures. I knew it was going to be a special hunt when I read about the four wolf howls.

Blessings to you and Larry, and to all of our little/not so little anymore family this season.

That is just about as cool as it gets Travis!  From the story, the shot, the freindships, to the memories made, it just doesn't get better than that!  
And I sure have to agree - Larry is good chicken!!

Travis,
Thank you so much for your beautiful story.  It sure brings back memories for me with Chris.  Larry is indeed a very generous caring man.  

That's not the only animal the knife has preformed surgery on.  It was my personal carry for a couple of years.  Glad to see it still works...tippit
