Too many folks bash HBC at times and don’t post on here for some valid reasons. When I look at the glass half full side of things many folks have learned, met, shared, helped. It’s up to every person on here to always try and think of the hunting community, support it, have our bickering but always think of the higher cause which is this sport and lifestyle we collectively love.

Awesome story!
I'm having my own fight with cancer and looks like I'm winning.
For next year I am planning a goat hunt with a new friend.
Can't wait!
Re: Ram Down, Special Hunter, Inspiration. Appreciation.
My next outing with this incredible person found us accessing from a different location and looking at new ground. One of my inside traders hinted that this area will hold few but well hidden rams that go into hiding once the pressure comes.
Pause....
Some of the permit holders brought as many as 6 spotters/scouters to assist them which put rams into hiding. This is certainly not a complaint on my behalf as I hope everyone had success but made rams tougher to find. We grinded it out on our initial push thru this area. Sign was skinny at best but invested a very long day poking the cracks.
Despite no sightings we hit it again the next day as we did find a little fresh track and a few very well protected/hidden beds. My plan was to grid this area out and snoop every hidie hole in there....nodda. Halfway thru the day I had no confidence making any more effort there....uphill we went. Our gal was becoming more committed with her focus and perseverance. I don’t wish to speak for her but her initial white complexion and meek appearance was looking better and better, healthier, more stamina, more and more drive.
I’ve been around the block and then some, have had the privilege of calling some amazing people I’ve met thru business and pro sports as friends. Pay checks and notoriety do not make a person, Ive learned that it’s all about character and people that have a dialed compass and value system, an honest and open heart.
