Right on Karl, congrats on a great trip and how good does it feel to be out of the closet!!!  We now all know, deep down Karl is a blacktail guy!!  I guess mulies are just easier to hunt and everyone knows mulies are the step children of blacktail anyways...   :chuckle:

Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

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