It'll be a very cool experience for you digger. I got to say I'm envious of you guys with kids that are first time hunters.

Nope

But there’s always a reliable winter herd that pops out in 302.

Like clockwork every year pretty much.

How did I miss this thread Bessie?? Good job dad! And better job by your girl! That is awesome.

Now for sure I'm going to make a point of finding you something special in a bottle while in Tasmania. But you need to share with that young lady huntress!

I didn't fold my cow tag, but in fairness I put in almost as much effort as I do when I check the mail down at the post office...

Something about family, elk, outdoors, guns, some snow, the quiet, the chase. Congrats to you both on the success & the traditions. Well done!
