One of the favorite things about what I do is experiencing my clients hunts through their stories.  I was especially fortunate to not only get this story from my client Jerry but I was also in camp with him when he got his first Caribou.  To see how excited this guy was made the entire trip worth it.  I would say we have a new hunter on board for life with us now.  Great Job Jerry!

Greg,

 Great to hear from you. It was pleasure meeting you and hearing about your hunts.

 Indeed it was a great time and definitely an experience I’ll treasure for many years. It’s an incredible feeling having my first shot at big game hit it’s target so true. It’s an even better feeling when it landed the one that was envied by the other guys in our group. Having a great guide was truly the reason I was able to get such a nice trophy, so I gotta give him the credit he deserves – thanks Mayo (he’s in picture 018)! 

 Jerry's Boo2Not many hunters can say that within the first hour, of their first day, of their first hunt,  they were able to be as fortunate as I was. Seeing the rack of that Boo come over the ridge and being in such a perfect position, got the adrenaline surging through my veins. My heart was pumping so intensely, it nearly popped out of my chest. 200 yards with a .308 may not be the longest shot with the biggest gun, but I’m sure proud of it.

 One shot…animal down….Caribou steaks for dinner….it doesn’t get any better than that.
