That's good you didn't shoot. The hide isn't worth tanning yet. .We killed a black one last year.

Very cool, thanks for sharing the pics!
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

That's awesome Weatherbyfan.  Neatest WA animal pic I've seen in quite a while.  I also like your choice of weapon for the shot. :tup:
