I am from Texas and I admit it.......I am not a big fan of the horse. Probably due to two facts. I am a control freak and never had one of my own. One of our crew's dad used to take theirs up to your country and even though they were good horses and they were cowboys, they acted different up there. Have another friend that takes his and swears it is the only way to go.
Since I don't have any of my own and don't want to start, figure I will just have to use diesal, gas and foot power.
We may end up turning a 7 day trip into 14 if we ever got that many elk on the ground. But as I have mentioned before, I am hard headed as a fencepost (wife reminds me all the time) and I come from a long line of hard-headed hunters. We never waste game. We always hunt hard. We kill it, we get it out if it kills us. No excuses. I have read some on this site making their decisions about taking a shot based on the location they are in. We made that decision when we apply for a tag. We hunt and we harvest. We get it out if humanly possible.

So did you buy the stove jack from a tent company?
