Sounds like you had a good time and with your dad to boot!!! Good on you. And buck fever will never ever really leave, you just have to learn to control it. Also shooting a grouse with your .308 and a head shot is some great shooting!!!

Just a hint, and please do not take it the wrong way, but break up your sentences into groups. IE each day make it a group of sentences and info, then leave a line for space and add the next day. It makes your story easier to read. Also make your sentences with periods so that we, the reader, can follow your story. Again, not trying to give you an english lesson, just some pointers for future stories, because there will future stories.:smile:

Cheers

Two grouses are better than no grouse. Besides, time in the field beats work, esp. spent with family!
