Thanks for posting about your adventure TC and Bob.
Willmore and horses go together like PB and J. Beautiful pics, and 16 days out there sounds like a dream trip. Recently saw some pictures of a gorgeous bull moose out of the Willmore by some resident hunters. Wondering what class of bull Bob would find adequate on a hunt like that. 50”+?
Congrats on the wolf. Bob seems to have those toothy critters dialed!

Hunting is a bit like a bike trip. The journey is part of the destination. Congrats on a great wolf. Are you loving the new rifle?

Thanks! And yes I am. KS did a great job on it, and it's light to carry. I put 100+ rounds down it dialing it in, and getting really confident with it. It is superbly accurate, trigger is wonderful. And the terminal results are impressive. The low recoil is a blessing on my arthritic shoulder, one of the deciding factors for that cartridge. I'm a real fan.

Looking after all those horses and mules would explain the weight loss.

Congrats TW-your wolf trumps all of my buddies rams for a trophy speaking to the sheer wildness of the Willmore (JMO).
