Re: Your Personal Best years???
Too many great memories to count. But narrowed it down to 2.
My brothers' first can goose (1987) died in a pond with 10 ft of thin ice around the edges. After half hr trying to cast and snag it with a fishin pole, as we were without retriever at the time, the ole man stripped down buck naked and swam it to fetch it.
Years later (2001), after the ole man had suffered a stroke losing most of his speech and right side, I had yet to take a big game animal in his presence. On our first annual road hunting expedition we lucked out and found a young 4x3 mulie buck rutted up in the middle of the road after a Revy snowstorm pushed him down. That would be the first and last big game animal harvest we would share.
Lost track of tags punched, but nothing will ever top that one. I'd give all them tags back for one more road hunt with him, successful or not...

The only advantage to a light rifle is it's weight, all other advantages go to the heavier rifle..
