An incredible year! (Pic links fixed)

I've been very fortunate this year. It has been an incredible year for some superb trophies!

I was able to harvest an incredible 450+ lb Minnesota Black Bear from a ground blind. The skull green scored right at 20".

Trophies are not dead animals...they are living memories.

I was also fortunate enough to be one out of 8000 people to draw a ND Pronghorn tag this year. I took my 8 year old son with on his first "real" big game hunt, and although it was windy and rainy, we we successful on the first day!

And...to top it all off, I was able to take the biggest mule deer ever on our family farm last week! I feel pretty humbled.

The mule deer pictures did not load for me but those are some great whitetails in your album.

On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

"...I advise the gun. While this gives a moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprize, and independance to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks."
