Wow, look at the head on that thing! Oh, and I mean the muskox but it does kind of look like Pat and the bull have matching hairdoos in the pic. Congrats Pat.

Pat that is one awesome animal. How did the rest of the crew do?
I ran into Chris just hours before he went to the airport was he able to make it around allright with his broken ribs and all.
You missed a great Sci Northern Alberta Chapter Banquet but from the looks of it you had a great time either way. Whats he score?

i was able to put together a group of 6 people so i got the total package for 22500$ or 3750$ each, the flights were 850$ and the rooms were 350$ a night so the total price with my tips come to a total price of 5600$.

The arrow went right through no problem and stopped on the opposite shoulder blade, i jacked er up to 67 pounds to make sure i got good penetration on the arrow.

chris got his own sled but the main bolt for the suspension broke and then he had to ride in the allieak and with his busted ribs he only lasted about 1/2 hour and the next good bull we spotted was knocked down,

heres my uncle larry or smokestick on the forum here with his bull
