Default RE: Accomplish before your bow hunting career ends?

Mine are some tough ones but hey anything is possible I guess. I've been lucky enough so far to where I have a P@Y whitetail and a P@Y bear with my recurve. Being my bear scored fairly high in the books I can honestly say that If I never shoot a bigger one I'm totally cool with that. As for whitetails I'd love to get one thats in that 160"+ range. I think its very possible but time will tell I guess. I've hunted elk in Montana for 7 years and still nothing with my recurve. That is a big goal for me to take an elk with my recurve. I've actually had 2 close opportunities (30 yards) at 300" class bulls, just a tad out of range. Both times I had the nice bulls coming into me I passed on the cows for a chance at the bulls, no one's fault but my own for not taking a chance at the cows. I know it can happen, just getting out there is whats stopping me now (money issues). My number one goal in my life though is to give my daughter the opportunity to do what I've been doing for the last 30 years, to enjoy the outdoors and hope like hell she's tagging along with her dad in the woods. If she's up for that it would just melt my heart. I have a feeling in won't be a problem, she's a daddy's girl inside and out already!
