Another of my favorites.  Little Pathfinder's first bear, Aug 2020.

This is fantastic on many levels.
Nice work to both of you

Here is Pathfinder JR's favorite deer.  And my favorite picture of him with it... (even though its a bit blurry)

I was archery hunting Idaho with some friends. I called this guy into 11 yards solo. It was epic. My first bull. At exact same time my dad was in Washington he kept calling me but I wouldn’t answer as I was stalking mine. He ended up taking an archery bull about exact same time as me.
My first bull, his last as he passed away suddenly a couple years later.

another favorite that isn't even mine... my dad's bull from this year. With him every step of the way

That's a great picture. Was that a WA bull?

Sure looks like one of our yards, 154?

My first goat way back in the day.   1984 to be exact in the now closed Pratt River unit.   Shot this billy solo on my 3 rd day out.   Saw him a 1/2 miles across a rock basin.  Ended up sneaking up and shooting him at about 30 yards out of a huge rock garden.  Goat took 3 more shots from my 7mm mag, and attempted a suicide leap off a cliff.   He ended up falling dead onto a tree on a sheer cliff.

My proudest moment and a realization that a mature billy pound for pound is the toughest animal to kill in North America..

Nice goat. Sure looks heavy.

One highlight of my life to see my son kill an awesome 7x7 bull and with my dads bow. Proud to see him carry on a family tradition

Beautiful animal

How did you end up getting him down? Still solo for the recovery or did you have some friends on standby? Those hard ones create the best and longest lasting memories

It was pitch dark after I found and gutted him.   I took a branch and propped the rib cage open and came back the next day with my brother to pack him out.   The unit stayed open for a few more years before being closed.   The area was the Russian Butte and you can see it when you drive east on I 90 past Mt Si.

Most guys that kill a Mtn goat come back with a pretty good story, and in the end, those are the special times that count👊🏔👊
