I couldn’t be more happy for this kid! I explained to Braden that although we made a great plan and did everything just right, we still had a lot of good luck and were blessed to be here. I explained to Braden that it was such a good thing he did letting Joey have the first opportunity, that...
That evening we loaded up and decided to head back to the same spot as the morning. Figured the bucks went in early enough that maybe they would emerge a touch earlier. We parked the truck at the edge of a Milo field and hiked up to the hill to get a little vantage to sit and glass all the...
Braden got to spend some time feeding the ranch cows and learning a little roping from Kyler and Hunter! Now Braden wants a rope………I’m sure to rope his brother and sisters. Let the harassment begin.
But in Kansas, when it hits 100 degrees, you go find the nearest cattle pond and go swimming and catching frogs! These kids had a blast swimming and catching frogs in the mid day heat! I honestly think they would have just stayed at that pond all day instead of deer hunting if we let them
We got to our friends, the Hogans, just in time to run get some scouting in before opening morning. We would be meeting a friend of mine, Kris, from Colorado as his son drew a permit as well and Joey would also be on his first deer hunt. The evening scout produced an area with 4 or 5 nice...
And for some reason we had to stop for a picture of the roadkill coon The backroads of Kansas gave us a good opportunity to start teaching Braden how to drive
September 3rd, we were so excited, Braden and I decided we would just take off after school and drive for a few hours so that we could be to our spot in Kansas for an evening scout on the 4th. We drove until about 1 am and took a rest near Casper, WY. At 6 am, we were on the road again heading...
With a departure date of September 4th, we decided on the 2nd, we better go for one more final round of shooting to make sure everything was good with the gun. With clay pigeons being destroyed at 225, I think we both knew a Kansas buck was in serious trouble!
When the April 24 deadline came to apply for youth hunts in Kansas, I decided to phone a buddy in Kansas and ask him his thoughts on applying Braden for a youth hunt down there. He said that I had better do it and come on down if he drew, he would help us get lined out on some deer. At this...
Well, I grew up there and know Mineral county very well. Turns out I have some properties for sale too. One spot right on the river, hunting is incredible. You should buy it;)
Actually, the hunting there used to be awesome. Now, I'd say marginal. If a person lives there and has the time to...
So, glad you brought that up because I thought the same thing. BOB is a 30 year expert and making a comment that it was an honest mistake means.............it was sublegal.
And no it wasn't called in, which is what made the problem bigger. Tom tried to argue that it was legal when the trooper...
13. Troopers stated when they went to our site and all our moose meat was sampled days after we left, it was determined inedible. The DNA I'm sure will be used to compare to some other moose that you guys claim went to some "donation"....... I don't know the details of troopers procedures, I...
11. I don't doubt for a minute you have processed many a ton of wild game meat. You are probably great at it.......I would hope. However, I can tell you have been coached by Tom on what to say. Dang, busted. I don't think Tom realizes that his own emails are not allowing any of your timeline...
Ive now posted comments on 8 thru 13 and somehow everything keeps deleting:mad::mad:
try for a third time.
8. I don't care how they got their tags........and they are all good guys, doesn't change the fact there were a pile of moose hunters.
9. You may want to rethink this one...
Well hello there Bob! Glad to see Tom has recruited more help to try and defend him. Was getting lonely on this side of the ring......Just thought I would take a moment here to clarify a couple things on your post.
1. As disorganized as things are at that camp, I'm not surprised that you were...
I usually take a lot of pictures, especially of carcasses. That way if the meat quantity or anything like that is ever questioned, I can show them that the even the birds were pissed when we left:)
