Wolf hunt last week
« on: October 18, 2013, 01:25:13 PM »
Got a couple wolfs off a kill last week.  Mine was a 60 pound male pup and my wifes was a 90 pound male.  Had to get hers out of a mine shaft....

You followed a wounded wolf into a mineshaft...

That's a whole 'nother level of crazy than I'm used to seeing on here.  Way to get it done, though  :tup:

Nice!

Just a tip, it would have dragged out of the mine shaft a lot easier if you'd put the rope around it's neck. That way you are pulling with the hair grain and don't have the legs hanging up on stuff. If you're dragging animals, headfirst is always the way to go.

That was what I was thinking. Kudos to you two for going the extra mile however. Most folks would have let it stay down there and walked away.

Nice work.

Great job, took a lot of guts to go into that hole, I would have been afraid of the mine caving from the shot concussion.

You have quite the wife.  Mine won't go hunting and sure as he'll wouldn't even stick her head in that hole.  Actually that makes two of us.  I wouldn't go in that hole either.  The concussion of the gun shot could make the dirt fall.

Congrats on the wolfs.  :tup:

Great video and congrats on the double little concerned about going in the mine shaft and then shooting in a shaft that has shown signs of collapse.
Have a question though when I watch the video at frame/time 35 the camera shows  what looks like an X-ray view of a shoulder.
Double Congrats
1 on having a wife that isn't scared s--tless of going into a mine shaft and 2 having a wife that is willing to go hunting with you
