Just wondering.... Is it hunted the 29 or have hunted 29 all scoring B & C..

Either way... amazing accomplishment!

Congrats

Congrats Pat!!! Nobody has accomplished all 29 that score B&C. There is only 1 person that has all 5 B&C caribou species.

He made the muzzleloader book (Longhunter Society) with all his. The minimums are much lower than B&C.

I'm confused here, are you sayingnthat Gunslinger is the B& memeber to complete the super Slam, or the only AO member to do it?

He's saying that no one has completed the 29 with all animals qualifying for the B&C minimum.

I thought that Granzel Fritz was the first, but maybe some of his didn't qualify?
If this is the case, then HOLY MOLY ( to quote hal53!!!!)

I'm not sure Cat....I know he was the first to use the term Super Slam but not sure how they all scored. Taking all 29 that qualified for the B&C minimum would be a monumental task.

Chuck would know, IIRC he has a book about him, or at least some very good info.
We had a discussion last year about the rifle he used and the scope.
I'm sure we will find out oince gunslinger is back home and come down off that big cloud he is no doubt on for a bit!!
I'm still boggled by it, that's just something you don't hear about every day!
