I don't find it hard to believe that your family would rally around you Kevin. You always have something positive to say and are just genuinely good natured, my friend.

Kevin???

I've got two work buddies that I'm going with. I'd love to make a whole trip out of it and hit you up and then Texas on the way home.

Man, I'd do everything possible on my end to make that happen! I didn't hunt last year, and that can't happen again. Some of the public land in the delta is incredible. I like Panther swamp, but there are plenty others.

I'd love to hunt an elk. Thats a bucketlist thing for me

I had a good friend of mine from middle school, came from a big hunting family. They got their German shorthairs from Germany because they had the blood line his father wanted. Always a deer hanging from their basketball pole every fall. I graduated OSU before him. When he graduated I asked him what he planned to do and he said move to Washington. I asked if he had a job and he said no. I asked why Washington and he said that’s where the elk are.

That's your first deer?! My first deer wouldve fit in that ones mouth! :(

Mine too it was a tiny spike but it was a huge memory made!

And already a girlfriend.

Down in AZ it's one deer a year lottery system with no does unless you qualify for a youth hunt and there's only 25 of those tags.

In Georgia it's 10 does and 2 bucks...

 

[kingranch2003]

That's so beautiful. I hope you guys had a beautiful family day.

 

[kevgib67]

Exactly, Amanda. That's the moment that you know you can do it. It's a special memory, and became a lifelong passion.

Me too! We got moose here and I can never win a tag to hunt em. They basically hand em out to the natives first then after they get what they want they spread em around to the rest of us. There arent a lot of tags though

Just the sheer size of the animal, and the shot placement it would take just calls to me. And they're delicious.

I'd give it a shot! My neighbors brother was a guide in Alaska and he used to help him lug equipment, drive the truck etc. He's told me so wild backwoods moose hunting stories

Yes, I think the GSP pops a lot more. It's harder to see, but the clove polyps are getting more light too. They started growing after I added the Orphek, maybe I'll see more rapid growth now. Could be good.

It looks really good Wes. I think your tank would like a nice bright candy cane (caulastrea)!
