Title: Trip with my Son
Post by: Longbow1953 on May 17, 2012, 08:35:00 PM
I have a week to go before my grown son and I head out to Idaho for a Spring bear hunt.  Haven't done something like this with him for years and I'm really looking forward to it.

I'm really excited for you Don, sounds like a great trip! I'm glad you're getting out there and taking your kid with you! Hopefully you're still smoking the targets like you were two weeks ago at the spring shoot! Knock em dead!

It should be *awesome* in Idaho!

Enjoy the quality time together - and if you get to drop the string, that will be the icin' on the cake!

Safe travels!

Shoot straight, Shinken

Good luck to both of you Don.  I'm looking forward to hearing about it.  Would you consider writing an article about your adventure for the MLA's Sticktalk magazine?

I want to thank you all for your heartwarming responses.  We will be hunting with Russell Pond Outfitters in Avery, Idaho.  I hunted there a couple years ago with a buddy of mine and we both came away with bear...I got a 6' Cinnamon at 15 yds. with a Deathwish longbow.  Mike, I will try to put together a story for Stick Talk when I get home.
