micdundee, I don't think you are nuts at all, that's why I asked for your dream bow hunt. Its your desire and there is nothig wrong with that, or with someone else wanting to come west to hunt elk, or go to Alaska for moose or bear. I have desire to someday to hunt huge mulie bucks, and kill a 30" with my bow. In Idaho 20 years ago that dream could have come true, but in todays Idaho a 30" buck is very very rare and becoming extinct. Even for rifle hunters a 30" buck is the ultimate goal, and even then you are just lucky to get to see a buck like that in a lifetime, let alone shoot him. If you went back 20 30 years ago or more and told people that in 30 plus years that a 30" buck would be very rare. I think they would have laughed at you. I guess what I am trying to say is dream about it, and if possible go do it while the dream can still come true. Heck in 20 years down the road it might not be possiable to live out the dreams for all sorts or reasons. Its kind of neat to see what everyones dream is, sorry for carrying on thanks, Jason.
