Jim, congratsulation to you, your staff, and the hunters on a remarkable year of hunting so far. I've been gone for a while from the site and was excited to see so many happy hunters with amazing bulls. Good luck with the rest of the season and a special hello to Pops. The hard work you have put in to this season from past experience has obviously been paying off. Well deserved and thanks for sharing your memories with us all here on Cousewhitetail. TJ

Congrats on a fine looking bull. That's one DANDY bull you have there.

A big congrats. to Jacob and for you helping to build another great hunter to carry on our sport. TJ

Christian, I loved your day by day and congratulations on a fine elk. You put the home work in and it paid off. I'm happy as h@# for ya. Good luck on your next hunt and keep the memories building. TJ

That is the cutest huntin partner I've ever seen. Must have taken after his mother. Congratulations to you and your misses. TJ

Not only is that a huge bull the picture is one of the best I've seen. Congrats on one fine trophy.

Congrats to you a one nice big muley. Put'em on the wall. JOB DONE! TJ

DB, congrats on a fine looking lope. It had to be hotter than heck out there. Way to get'er done. TJ

That's a nice muley. Congrats on your buck. He looks like he might have been heavy putting in the truck

Congrat. on a fine looking lope. He should look good on your wall. Way to go! TJ

I'm not sure about the top one but I think the bottom one will go around 40lbs of boneless meat in the freezer. The top one looks like it has a drop tine on the left side. Neat! TJ

Christian, good luck on your hunt. Take some pictures to share with us all. Go get'em!

That's a dandy in anyone'e book, Congrat. TJ

Mark is a friend of mine who has been waiting over 20 years for a chance at a gote. His first tag, that many years ago, got spoiled after he found a suicide victim on opening day. I promised him, I might look like death, but this opener would be different. I spotted the goat 200 yrds out and turned to inform Mark but he had already started walking in the direction of a G&F truck approaching. Neither him nor G&F knew they were about to mess this one up. I whistled to get Mark's attention at the same time he got to the truck. I motioned and he dropped it standing right next to the G&F truck. He then asked Paul Greer, the Game Warden, if he would like to see his tag? This isn't near as big as the others on here but to Mark this was a trophy he was quite proud of. 67" You would have thought it scored 150". I've been on many of Mark's first kills over the past 30 years and this one was special. The G&F took the picture and sent it to my e-mail. Amanda, you might know this friend of mine. Isn't life good? TJ

That was exactly my question but didn't ask. TJ

I was hoping to attend the party so I could meet everyone but I just returned to work this last week and they have ask me to work that weekend. I hope everyone has a great time! TJ ps- ...was Dirk D. invited?

Good luck on all your hunts Jim. Take lots of pics. TJ

First of all let me say that is a trophy of a life time right there. What I would give to have that hanging on my wall. There has been alot of nice things said about your character on here. I've never met you but it's good to know we have people of your caliber doing the right things and hunting hard. Congrat. on one DANDY BUCK! TJ

Jim....them are some nice bucks. They have alot of mass. .....sounds like you are on to a good thing. .....the ranch & country side is beautiful. I bet there are some monsters in there. .....keep us posted how things turn out and keep those pics comng. Good luck on your operation down under. TJ

My wife and I are looking for a new spot to camp this year. Where was this again? TJ

Wow, what a way to wake up to a good huntin story. I was all bummed caus I was home and your beautiful buck has just made my morning. Welcome to the site as well. I could feel your excitement. Thanks for sharing. TJ

Chris is a friend of mine that I have helped the last few years harvest his first archery turkey, elk, and a 92" rifle coues. This past week I set him up in my blind and he took another turkey. I had to return home to process my small 3x3 but before leaving camp I placed him on a water hole that had some small bucks watering. He just wanted to harvest his first ever archery coues and had this when I returned to camp Friday night. He has some photography skills to master yet but he was a little excited to say the least. Congratulations to Chris on a fine 115" after deductions. He actually shot the smaller of the two that watered.

Ok, I'm a little confused as always. How many tags can HOAL use each year? I cut my rifle coues tag up after I shot my deer last week not knowing I could donate this tag to{HOAL}. TJ

I don't know how you removed the arrows but thanks. You must know some kind of magic. If I send you my little 3x3 could you make him a 7x8? TJ

Lance, that had to be some great memory making there with your Dad. Congrat. to ya. Where's the pics? Jim, isn't this a great time of year. I also had the opportunity to help a friend yesterday harvest his first lope as well and then helped another friend harvest his first archery turkey today. I'm in 7th Heaven! TJ
