Realizing Larry is younger than my father and realizing my dad's last elk he killed was at 80. Sure makes you think.
@Big Fin, your quote "you are gonna run outta health before you run out of money" sure hits home and I see you came up with that from personal observation and experience. I really appreciated the manner in which you communicated with Larry about the pace, and how he was feeling without being patronizing or condescending. That is a struggle oftentimes to express to our hunters and relatives that we want to manage the pace and that it is not a hardship or inconvenience. You did that well from what made the episode.
You also picked a unit and area with some beauuuuuuutiful topography where you could walk 6 miles in a day and be in a herd of 150 elk. I hope that unit and hunt never gets internet famous...
