a_bow_but - BISON??

Funny you ask, Brett. I was just thinking the same thing yesterday. I sure hope the hunt has gone well.

same here, i almost put up a post just like this a couple days ago.. 4c

The hunt might have gone too well. He could still be packing out the meat :)

Well it's been a great hunt so far. We have seen a few bison but most of the have been bulls and the others have been way up high and way far back in. When we started seeing the cows we had already shipped the horses home for the holidays and we were leaving the next day. Now that we have a good idea of where they are living after that big storm blew through there last week it shouldn't take to long to find them again. Came home for the holidays and will be leaving in a few days to try and seal the deal. It's been alot of fun and it is a real cool area. When I'm done and have more time I'll post some pictures.

Thanks for thinking of me I wish that all of you cold come along for the fun and to help pack out the meat. :))

Well, good luck my friend! I probably won't be around much when you come back but I"ll check in once I get a chance.

Knock em dead!

Glad you finally found the location, best of success after Christmas.

Well it's going to be an interesting second half to the hunt. My wife just found out today the she has to go in for a rotator cuff surgery on Friday. #-o

After arguing about it for almost an hour she convinced me that she will be OK till the end of my hunt and told me to go anyway. (Got to love a woman that is that understanding) I'm not to happy about it but trying to argue with her is like arguing with a cop that he is wrong. Neither one is a good idea. So I'm really hoping to tag out fast so that I can get home to take care of my wife.

I'll try to keep you abreast of the situation and hope for the best.

It been quite an adventure so far and it will take me forever to try and type it all out.

I'm on my way back down tomarrow to continue the adventure and if I'm lucky we will all survive the trip especialy the horses.

K good luck a_bow_nut. Remember to take the camera or else

Ill be very sad :)

It's official I finaly won an argument. :)

I'm calling off the hunt to stay with my wife and help her after her surgery. I didn't sleep almost all night thinking of what to do. Once that I had decided to stay I felt so much better that I didn't have any trouble going back to sleep so I know in my heart that it was the right decision.

I had a real good time and I wouldn't have changed a thing with the whole hunt. I got to spend time out in some real neat country with my wife, brother and my nephew chasing some real big animals. Story still to come.

AH-HAH!!!
so you've finally discovered the difference between hunting and shopping!
lol....
Peace in your heart and the love of your wife are worth 1000 buffalo!

I couldn't have said it any better than Chet. You're a good man a_bow_nut.

Heck, just having the opportunity to chase those Buffs is more than most of us will ever have.

Take care and and good luck to your wife on a speedy recovery.

It sounds like you have your priorities straight. I hope your wife is doing well and it sounds like you had a good time which is what matters most. Were you trying to kill one with your bow? That would be really tough. It's a lot harder hunt then people realize, especially after they have already been hunted for a couple of months. Lets hear the story. :thumb
