Got one!!!
« on: September 07, 2011, 07:26:44 PM »
After a few years of figuring an area out we finally scored! I shot this bull this morning ~4.5 miles from the nearest road!  With the hot weather and extreme insect hatch, we knew we had our work cut out for us.  We got him packed out in 2 loads and it took 6 hours.  I could not be happier!

Good job!
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

Congrats Bart...you deserved it....way to go.

" 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
