JW:  That was a good one.  I did not realize how many does I had shot.  Would like to shoot a Mt. Lion which is very possible, a Mt. Sheep which is impossible get a permit for here where I live, and a Hartman's Zebra which are one of the most difficult plains game animals to get close to!

Did you finally get yourself an antelope? When we talked at the Classic last year that's what you were wanting to hunt w/ primitive gear.

There are so few antelope tags in areas with any public land that I have passed on applying. 
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

I'm crouched in the thick underbrush waiting for him to come closer. I've been waiting for this day my whole life, and at this moment my success rests on which direction the big brown bear decides to move. Slowly he begins walking in my direction. I know this is the day it could all come together, but I have been close many, many times before. The bear is thirty yards out, and coming closer. I am shaking with adrenaline. And as the bear closes the distance, I raise my bow, and slowly begin to draw. At twelve yards he stops and looks right at me. If I am detected at this range the outcome could be ugly. I am holding at full draw now, as his eyes burn through me. There is a sapling in front of his ribcage, and he needs to take one more step. Finally he lowers his head and moves forward, and simultaneously I loose my stone tipped arrow....

But for now it's just a dream.

The hunt of my dreams is chasing down a bull moose with a lance through the deep snow of January, the cold searing my lungs as, flying over the crusted drifts I run it down until it can't run anymore.
It could happen...

More realistically, Spot and stalk woodland caribou.

Nice!  Maybe if it was a really old moose with a dwindling interest in life, I'd have a chance.  ;)

I guess I should branch out more and try something different, but all I can think of is whitetails and wild hogs right here at home.  That does it for me.  Spot and stalk hog hunting is as much fun as you can have with your pants on.
