Congrats on a great hunt. Thanks for sharing.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

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

Thanks everyone!!!  Another BIG bull showed up on camera last night.  Hoping the wife can put the smack down on him this coming weekend!  I'll post a photo of him tonight.  Plus the bear I saw on Saturday afternoon was on camera last night, about 500 yards from the house.

Congrats Fred. Can’t wait to see what your wife gets. Also can’t wait to see the freezer pics.
