2009 Dream Season--Is my bowhunting career over?
«

Here are a couple pics from this last archery season. Not sure, may never be able to top this year--one thing for sure; I will keep trying! Thanks to my wife for putting up with the season that never ended (and paying the taxi bill!); Thanks to my hunting partner Jack--this sport is only as fun as the guy you hunt with; we always have fun!

Nope....It's just getting started.
My first elk ever was a 290 inch Roosevelt (cascade). All that did was light the fire!!!!!!!!!!!

Hell of a season! Congrats on all 3 of them. The best part of having a season like that is trying to beat it.

Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
