congrats...lets hear the story!!

: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

so there i was... knee deep in bear *censored* with a q-tip and some sand paper which i crafted into a 300 winmag (had to save the tiolet paper for emergencies). blah blah blah and so on. the real story is that me and a friend were out earlier that day and scared one up a tree where it stayed all day, don't know why but it did. We went back for our wives a few hours later so that they could see it and on our way back out we rounded a corner and four bear were feeding in a meadow. they scattered, i ran after, drew up and put one off. i hit it in the spine and he dropped like grandma's boobs. as we were walking up to it he got on his feet and tried running so i put one last round in him to seal the deal.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Good Job, what part of the unit were you in? We were up there also. It was great weather for hunting that's for sure.
Some people spend their entire life wondering if they made a difference. Marines don't have that problem.
