Fantastic adventure!
Not a bad looking camp at all. Getting the chance to "go for it" is definitely the way to roll.
Great that you got to experience a good outfitter. Most of them are, I believe.

Joe, what a simply awesome tale!

Congrats again and if I could find a better way to say it I would.

I've told people at work, out shopping, and even at the post office and every time the same reaction....."he did what with a longbow?" Looking forward to hearing the story re-told in person and getting to see the rug someday.

Thanks for the beautiful pictures and knowing you took the time during your stalk to take photos says it all.

Way to go!!

Fantastic tale.  I dream hunt for sure!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
