Friend Jeff,
In celebration, let's do a few fun photos:
Here's one of my boys, dead in the bottom of a nasty canyon. I've killed as many elk as I am old and I have NEVER gotten one out in one piece ... never.
How about a pic of one of my best whitetail? I murdered hin in Alberta. Did the deed with my .280 Ackley Improved and a prototype Nosler bullet (that they decided NOT to make ... big mistake)
Here's me playing the Meat Man in He!!'s Canyon. Yup, I used to have brown hair and I WAS young ... once.
For some reason, my editor would not publish this photo. I guess blood offends him 
I killed this eland in the Northern Transvaal. Guts, feathers and all he weighed 1069kg, or 2,352 pounds. I did the deed with a .30-'06 and a single 180-grain Hornady Interlocked bullet.
Yup, cup-and-core bullets still ROCK!!
And here's a decent Alberta coyote I ran down and killed with a hockey stick. Long, long story and I WILL tell it to you guys one day.
Elmer Keith was one of my mentors. Here is what he wrote in the front of my copy of He!! I Was There." It chokes me up every time I read it. I loved that GREAT MAN
And, lastly, here's a photo of Karen and me after renewing our wedding vows in the Wedding Church at Cana. We took a wonderful pilgrimage to Israel this last May and it was way beyond belief!!
Enjoy,
Steve
