You couldnt of said it any better, im telling you guys when i got down and out mentally and just couldnt go on anymore i would call her, she would answer the phone with so much happiness to hear from me and tell me to keep pushing, theres nothign going on at home, just keep hunting hard and it will happen, these are things brandie did to keep me motivated when times got tough, And some of them 5 days in a backpack tent hunt while it poured rain got very boring. My family is the only reason i have accomplished this for sure.

Then I saw his hair do in the Musk Ox picture and I'm thinking common guy again because he would have done the Donald on the hair if he had the money.
My final profile of Gunslinger is that he is a middle age male of slightly above average wealth who is hung like a horse with an affinity for having his picture taken with a variety of big dead critters.
Great trophies Slinger! Thanks for sharing. Now get after those sheep!"
Congrats again Slinger'!!!!!!

Hi there Pat, I could be wrong but I somehow have the feeling that the smile you have one your face, in your pics, is still there when you go to sleep. Kinda like rigormortis of the facial muscles..Good on you and the best of everything be with you in your next outing...

Pat...I think your book is gonna have to be done in a series! One couldn't carry the words around for all your hunts in his arse pocket  By the time you get the "Gunslingers N/A 29" finished....we'll be wanting to read "Gunslingers Flock of Sheep"
Fella might have to invest in a wireless electronic book tablet.....that way we can read it in real time as you write it !!

Well done Pat. I can't get over the drive and enthusiasm you have to accomplish the things you have. Best of all I admire that big smile of yours in all those pictures, if Boone&Crockett measured smiles you'd have a world record!

Awesome...
Been reading of your adventures so far and it's great to see this accomplishment. What makes it even better is it was done by a regular working man with a lot of ambition. Way to go and huge congratulations!! Can't wait to read about the sheep.

Congrts Pat. I see now why there's no pics of you in the coyote contest, you've been busy with other stuff.
Outstanding accomplishments for sure. I'm looking forward to the next chapter.

Very impressive. I think the first thread I saw of yours was the bighorn trip you had with your wife. I didn't know then you were on a quest to get 28 other big game animals... Thanks for sharing your accomplishment - it's great to see this stuff can still be done in today's world.

Thanks
Pat, whatever the passion is, the tenacity and patience it takes to become one of the world's best is indeed truly awe inspiring. And to share as much as you can with friends you have never met is much appreciated. A special shout from my family to yours for providing the foundation required to see it through to the end ( although I am sure we are not done yet)...sk
