[Crunchy]

Didnt cut any fresh tracks.  Looks perfect for that kinda hunting.

[BENCHLEG]

keep pounding the bush. or is that why you came home. HA HA . get  a big one. J

[backwoods_boy]

the rumor around the office is that they are going to let me head over after work tomorrow.
i hope that comes together..i will freak out if they say i cant leave.

Good job.  Keep it up.  The quality time in hunting camp with family and friends, is more important than any kill.   love the positive attitude!  Now, go kill a bull so you think about the hunt every time you look at the mount! 

[backwoods_boy]

Yeah, i have come to realize more and more how special the memories and the time i spend with my dad and brother are.
my grandma passed away towards the end of september and it made me really realize how short life is and to not take special time with family for granted.
We have had a blast so far and even though i have only been hunting solid for 3 years i have been taught by my dad since i was 10 that hunting is not about KILLING animals.  its about so much more than that.
I enjoy explaining that statment to people who dont hunt when they say "did you kill anything"? i say "nope......and the trip was perfect."
they look at me puzzeled and i just smile.

JUST GOT THE WORD FROM THE BIG MAN UPSTAIRS.......
They are giving me thursday and friday off.
so im packin quick when i get home and heading to RIMROCK for a last go. Dad is still there and bro is meeting me over there.
my grandpa and uncle are also joining us around the camp fire for a night or two.
i called in some buddies to help me push maybe and i also called a local we met while scouting who is gonna give us a hand.
im leaving tonight and will be back sunday night so ill try and drop a report monday when i return to work.
So stoked to get over there....Im outtie guys!
late!
ps. this hunt has already been more rewarding than i could have ever asked for and if we dont bag something it will still be so rewarding.

You know what I don't get... you had all summer to plan and you took several scouting trips, yet I can't figure out how you didn't secure the full two weeks off from work?

I think that would have been at the top of my list!

Good luck!

[Falcon]

Good luck guys !

The hunt ain't over until you run out of legal daylight on the last day.

Take no prisoners !!!!
