NOT ENUF <img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>!!!

Sept 11 put a big hamper on things for me (gaurd duty). I did get 2 weeks off in august for a float trip (caribou). Spent 3 days hunting in Mn, shot 2 deer. Was hoping to get back up north for bou after oct 1 to see if I couldnt herd a biggun into my cab and pen him up in the condo but that was a no go, uncle sam prevailed. I did call in a bull moose, never saw much but dang did he get ticked at me....definatly was within shooting range however the thick alder/young poplars made visibility very poor. Great grouse hunting though, saw more then a few there. Also have called in 7 fox this year, personal best. Still learning however, when I see them I can get them to come...if I dont see them my odds are VERY bad LOL! Hopefully this year will be a different story. Looks like I am headed north for a photograph/black bear spot-stalk hunt. Fall for elk (if drawn), mulies, sheep, caribou and what ever else I can figure out...possibly a moose hunt if time prevails....Unlike normally though this year was a great success even with the limited time in the field. Your company can and will ALWAYS make or break a hunt. This year I had 2 of my old bow buddies with me, shot a deer with one of them, dang near did with the other one. Met some great folks and did a float with them...spent a good amount fishn with them also. Wish I had taken more photos though. Being capt of a raft and taking photos dont go hand in hand!!!
