This year. Took the wife on a cow elk hunt. She makes a perfect 80 yard shot (rifle I guess I have to add, given what some guys think is a decent bow shot opp
). We are 3/4 mile from thew truck. Get it quartered up no problem. We are loading up to carry the first load.
Have a hind quarter strapped in and I think, gee this hind ain't so heavy, if I grab a front shoulder we'll have an easy 2-tripper. As I am reaching down and grabbing a front shoulder and draping it over my shoulder for the easy walk out, the wife is grousing about how that is not safe and to not try it. Since I know everything there is to know:hump:, I am telling her in no uncertain terms it is "NO PROBLEM back off". I have literally not even gotten the words out of my mouth as I slip and break my fibula. Hobbled out leaving the pack and meat behind. Wife has to go in with a backup team to pack it all out as I lay on the couch, iced up, waiting for surgery in a few days...
