Wow man that’s a fantastic story what an incredible outcome; perfect world indeed!!!!
Kudos not only on the awesome mountain bucks but also on yer dad’s choice of cartridge; I’m a huge fan and adding to it the fact he has such a rich history with that rifle is just unbelievable.
Too cool man congratulations again and thanks for sharing!!!
So I walk into Heartland bow shop today, while I am back visiting my folks in Virginia. Turns out he has your picture up on his bulletin board. I thought it looked familiar. Turns out it's a small world after all! Glad to see some guys are still killing nice bucks on the ridges I grew up hunting! Congrats again!
Same thing about population density and dynamics here in WNC. Luckily we had some disturbances happen, so we are seeing some improvement on a portion of NF here.
