Thanks guys. I’m hoping to head up to start the big adventure in a few hours. As fate would have it, I’ve got some pretty significant  family stuff going on at this very moment so I might be delayed on heading over. Keep the positive vibes coming!

Don't be pressured by score.  Have a great time with your son.  This is a good time to really get your rifle dialed in and refresh (or build) that muscle memory.  Practice shooting paper further than you are willing to risk wounding a bull.  Find a nice mature bull that you both will enjoy looking at on the wall and remembering the hunt.  Don't listen to anything that includes "doing that tag justice".  Lots of armchair bull hunters who would hold out for xxx", don't let the internet put added stress on.  Hunting shouldn't be a performance spectacle - that said, I hope you will share posts and pics and let us all live vicariously through your hunt.

There has got to be someone from the area that will help you out and hold those bullets until you need one. This would be a great hunt to tag along with.

When?  :dunno:
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

It's 5:00 somewhere!!!
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
