I apreciate all the kind words. Trust me, I realize how blessed I was to enjoy such an experience.
I am still buzzing around this morning as I think about my last adventure and plan a crazy week before I head out again.
MAN, I enjoy this stuff! If I could afford to take the entire fall off, I would be somewhere new every couple of weeks just to experience new adventures.
Jake, my wife and I are very excited about our trip to Kansas and the beginning of our next great adventure. No pressure though, I can turn a trip to the Buffett in to a nail biting hair raising day to remember.
Thanks ya'll, BigJim

Great story Jim I just read it from my treestand in Kansas and the Big Boys are starting to move here.  They will probably be really rocking by next week.  Good luck.

Congrats, what a beauty of deer.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
