Totally awesome!
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Very impressive well deserved beautiful buck :tup:
It's better to have a gun and not need it than to need one and not have it.                                                                             Local 66 sheetmetal workers

congrats very nice buck.....

and I also ditched my eberlestock pack as it never did fit quite right I have a short body and had the same issues with fit even after going and trying to get it fitted from an eberle dealer...

Great post and a beautiful buck.  Way to get it done, sounds like you found a little honey hole for future years too.

Beautiful Hirshey!    Well done and great write up.  My kind of hunting.  I imagine one of these days we are going to bump into one another on the top of some mountain.

Nice buck, and a great job of scouting and planning your hunt, thanks for sharing, (note to self, its never easy packing out a heavy pack, but the rewards are well worth the pain.) We all here at hunt wa.can only hope to match your succuss.

Absolutely awesome buck and story. Congratulations!
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.

Very Nice buck! Sounds like a well earned buck and a great adventure! Good luck the rest of the season!
I felt like a one legged cat trying to bury a terd on a frozen pond!
