Hunter - I like the story - know quite a few people like that...with some I think it is envy - others may be a lack of maturity or maybe they are just wired differently.

I went on an elk hunt last year with a couple of XX team mates my brother and one of the guys cousins whois also a member - we did not put an elk on the ground but were all at full draw on bulls, worked a big herd bullas a team. We spent some of the most quality time together I can think of and bonded lifetime friendships. Just does not get better than that! I would have been just as happy if not happier for any one of the group to take an elk as me!

Quick - at leastair brushed antlers on the pony's for me - and pack it in the Dora backpack!

Good news - just got off the phone with a client - have a place to hunt 15 min from the office...and a good freind lives right across the road (says it is an absolute honey hole!)
