Default Anybody taken all the species?

Hello,
I recently got the idea to set a goal of getting them all. Yes, I am setting the goal right now to take them all. It's going to make for a few really good vacations! Anybody done it? Anybody who lives in Oklahoma? If so, I'd like to interview you for a story in my hunting/fishing publication.

I just set the same goals this year. I want to get the slam with the bow. I will be hunting merriams, rios, and easterns with the bow this year.

I read a lot of hunting mag and 99.9% of them are catering to the private property turkey hunters.

I've got a idea for your article. Do a article on.

"How to get your slam on public land"

Has a catchy ring to it. Dosen't it????

Let me know what you think

Well men (and ladies), we can do it. Good luck to all who is setting the goal.

Mr Longbeard, I really do like that idea. Talk about a challenge.

Now let me get this straight. A slam is every species, not just the species in North America, correct? Or is it just the species in North America? Goulds for example...aren't they required for a grand slam?
