Home from hunting *PRONGHORNS* in Montana

That'd be Mr. Hollywood himself, Pete Iaccavazzi. But you knew that...
Yeah, we had a ball!  :D   I guess Tracy isn't gonna tell about how his son Sean almost ran one into the ground on the last day of the hunt. 'Course now that I've seen him type I kinda know why his posts are so short     As the bucks runnin, Sean's runnin. They played that cat and mouse game for over 2 hours though I only witnessed the last 30 minutes or so. Sean finally got a shot but it went over his back.  Man I never saw a feller that deserved an animal more than he did. I was up there rootin and prayin for him the whole time. Finally Sean played out and plopped down in the grass with his arms hanging over his knees. At, oh 600 or so yards I could see his red face. Young feller gave it all he had and wasn't leaving til he had. Turns out he'd left camp with no water and didn't have but a little drink at one point where he hooked up with his dad at the truck.    I wish I'd taken pics of the chase. Some folks aren't gonna believe it.
Tracy had a chance to watch the buck as it crossed under the fence into the neighbor's field . He said it actually stumbled and was panting with its tongue hanging out as it flopped onto the ground after Sean had had enough.
Man those cactus spikes in my belly button still bug me!

Great story guys and glad to hear you all had such a good time.Sounds like it was an amazing trip and it is fun to read about the "antics" of guys who I actually know...will have to borrow the wife's computer at home to see the pics tho since the "net nanny" here at work blocks them.  :(
