Thanks for sharing Buzz! Glad your dad can still get after it at 78. I appreciate the fact that your family still gets together every year for the MT whitetail hunt. Brings back memories of growing up in WI and our annual deer camp foray.
I would say you and your family have had a great season so far! Congrats to both you and your brother! Enjoy your time in MT. I've been out the last five days and the whitetails around my place are cranked up and chasing does!
How about a spring British Columbia black bear hunt. You could drive to the destination and would have enjoyable, relaxing hunt while seeing lots of bears every day. Definitely could do it for $10K.
