Dream come true .......
«

December 27, 2018, 08:11:29 PM »
As I type this I’m still in disbelief at what I’ve been able to experience this fall. I’ve shared my success stories throughout the year within Deer/Elk topics but never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d be wrapping up the year within this category.
I’d always dreamed about an epic cat hunt which I hoped included wild country, deep snow, incredible hounds and a cat of what dreams are made of. Long story short, this hunt which I thought would take place many years from now all came together in the past few weeks.
I’m lost for words, I’ll let a few pics tell the story...

How do you measure trying, you do, or you don’t.

Nicely done, one hell of cat, he looked very pissed off in the tree.👍

Awesome man...youll have to text me the general area. Wondering if that's one of cats we crossed paths with in Nov.
Heck of a way to wrap up the year.

Wow great cat!!! I’m looking to do one of these hunts in the next year or two. Did you hunt Idaho?
