Thank you for taking the time to post all those pictures and tell the story. For most of us that is the closest we'll get to Big Bend with work, kids, wife, etc. Great story, great hunting and great pictures.
Just because you haven't been huntin' your whole life doesn't mean you don't want to spend the rest of your life huntin'.

Fantastic story and great pictures. I'm hoping to go to my place (Black Hill) during Spring Break. Gas prices may keep me home instead.

Truly enjoyed the story and pictures.
Shopping with your husband is like hunting with the game warden.
Experience is what you get, when you didn't get what you wanted.
