I would say that these photo's really capture the essence of what hunting is all about. It goes way beyond pulling the trigger or releasing the arrow. There is so much more involved.

Nice photo's capturing the side of hunting some on the outside are not aware of.

Thanks Wapiti, I agree with you 100%. There are so many memories we have on our outings, its difficult to capture them in a picture that will remind you of it.

Here's one from my ID moose hunt in 2006. I think I had enough hide left on that animal about to do a life size mount.....at least it sure felt that heavy!

I believe it was Saxton Pope that wrote:
"The success of a hunt can only be measured by the amount of effort that goes into it"
