that’s great Steve!! Love it. Our Fall weather is just beginning here in Southern IL.
In 2009, at 10,800 ft in the Weminuchee Wilderness Area, I killed a ruffed grouse with my longbow while hunting out of state in Colorado.
With a small game, Elk, and Black bear tag in my pocket and sitting around the campfire that evening I told Gilbert, my hunting partner “this is the most expensive chicken dinner you’ll ever eat”
It’s about the experience, filling a permit is secondary, but rewarding. I gun hunt too
Congratulations! my friend…..
