Just re-read this thread, we need more threads like this one. Very exciting all the way through. It's also a fine testament to the effort involved in long range hunting.

That was one of the best hunting seasons of my life. You simply can't put into words how many emotions where involved in a hunt like that!

It almost cost me a wife, Stupid Mooses

'Best hunting season'.... YEAH. It was AMAZING. NOT.

Sounded like an awesome trip and this thread was great as a field journal and in bringing us along with you. Wish you'd have got the kill shot on video. What was the final score on that moose?

Ryan should ban you for hate'n ....but there would be no hot cookies ....or conjugal visits ;D in his future !

Seriously, a man goes and works his tail off to bring home meat for the family and gets this kind of negativity.

The best part is after 17 years of being married she started hunting last year! Which I must say really surprised me. We now have several hunts planned this year. Didn't see that coming....Women are truly an enigma!

 

[William Hanson (live2hunt)]

That's awesome. If only she'd have hunted with you that year, 40 days after a moose would have been much easier on the both of you.

I dunno, after your wife making us watch that movie in Reno i think you meant to write... Women are truly CRAZY!

Watch out ! If she pulls a moose tag her and her girlfriends are going hunting for 40 days while you take care of the kids .

 

[Tanibunn]

Jealous?

No. Try again.

Nailed it!

 

[Tanibunn]

Shaun! You and Aron WANTED TO WATCH THAT MOVIE!! I was just trying to warn you how terrifying for a guy it was going to be!!! That is the last well intentioned advice I give you. Next time I'm gonna tell your WIFE to watch it

 

[William Hanson (live2hunt)]

Bring the kids. Make it a family affair.

You sound like a smart guy that has been happily married for a long time!

Well I can't brag the 17 years you and Ryan have but we're working on our 6th married and 8th together. My old lady trips when I'm gone a week, she'd freak at 40. She used to tag along quite a bit even when she didn't hunt and it was easier on her.

Glad you were able to redeem yourself with your last posts. I wasn't being negative, I was being realistic. Anyone that has a family should understand its a hardship for 1 of the adults to be gone 40 days. There was much childcare drama etc and I will take my sanity over a freezer with meat thank you. Ryan admitted LONG ago buying meat at the store was MUCH cheaper than hunting! All I'm saying is it's easy for you guys on these trips to lose sight of all things going on at home and not appreciate the people taking care of it so you guys can experience your 'Amazing, emotional journey.

I was just giving you hell Tanya, it's what us Green Bay fans do to you Dallas supporters . I recognize the hardships all to well and I catch the same hell for it at home.

Oh, I'm no saint, I didn't just freak, I was RAGING PISSED. 'Gone Girl' that Shaun referenced would have been alarmed with the thoughts running through my head. All I can say is thank goodness that is a once in a lifetime tag, because I look terrible in stripes!
