Ten days till first trip of year

Did you get one?
 
Best of luck! Nothing like carrying on a conversation with a nice Tom until he's nearly at your feet! Very exciting!
 
Good luck in Oklahoma !

Opening day in Texas was good for my wife and I. We hunt about 40 miles east of San Angelo, lots of birds..
 
@Fire652 doesn't matter now! Now that the monkey is off your back you can rack them up!
I agree. Kind of surreal though. Now that it is over it is a different feeling. Excited yet missing the chase again next year. Going to have to find a new one to go after. (Hopefully not a sheep as that would be expensive )
 
I felt that way once I got my slam, I finished with a Merriam, still had a tag in my pocket and just decided to sit at camp and have a cigar. I secretly have the sheep slam on my list but between points and saving up funds that is a long term one. I chose Deer as my next slam to chase. Right now I have a Columbian blacktail and whitetail to my name. But maybe coues this year and Sitka in 2019. Definitely gives you something to do that doesn't kill the bank.
 
I am going after each sheep. But do not know if I can do it more then once
 
Well Kentucky was good as well. Wind and rain but got er done

Royal slam done. Lots of days away and I think my turkey season is winding down, but what a way to get her done.
Beard lengths of 11 and 12 (double) inches

Saw a good looking knife you posted a pic of with the watermelon. Can I ask the make? Looks like you hunted with Guav Johnson? We overlapped in the Save once. Would like to hunt with him one day..
