OK, I woke up this morning and the tag is still there, it was not a dream. It is an archery S12 tag. I might have to hold off on that elk tag, Jake. Hopefully I don't draw anything else this year.

Post by: Easykeeper on May 01, 2011, 10:29:00 AM

Good luck on the dream hunt. You're going to have a fun summer planning and conditioning. How long have you been putting in for a tag without getting one?

Got your 3D sheep out in the yard and shooting off the top of the house?

Title: Re: WOW! I Drew a Sheep Tag
Post by: Colotrad on May 19, 2011, 11:51:00 PM

Funny thing is, since he got that sheep tag, Marks been nailing every target on our range...except the sheep. Good thing he's got a couple months to dial them in.

Title: Re: WOW! I Drew a Sheep Tag

I don't think it is funny. It is amazing what your mind can do to your shooting.
