Hope you boys have some fun. Stick a pig for me. Ryan is a hoot, although I haven't talked to him much since he switched jobs. He's a good ol boy like me, so you'll enjoy hunting with him. Kind of miss those coon hunting days. I did buy my furtaker to apply for a bobcat permit, but I found out he lost his cat hound and had to get a new young pup for this year. Not too sure how his training is going though.

I have a little job for his dad, who I believe is a machinist, so I'll have to get a hold of him soon. We need to build another long range tripod for the BIG EYES.

Anyhow, not to hijack the thread. There's been a few good bucks shot already around my neck of the woods. I got a good bow kill on film last Saturday, and muzzleloader starts tomorrow. I'm not sure if I want to blow all my tags up before gun season or not, so I may take tomorrow off. I still have several DMAP tags and of course have a couple saved for the long range setup. I'm going to have to buy another freezer before I shoot another deer anyhow. I'm running out of space already! I just finished my last batch of jerky yesterday. I got quite a bit of meat out of that bruiser of a deer. definitly larger than average for around here.
