Thanks for all the birthday wishes, guys! I sure appreciate ?em!

Put in 7? miles of rugged terrain yesterday chasing ghosts with Kevin. Brought my newly-finished .50 cal Woodsrunner stocked in walnut. Plenty of elk and deer sign, but not a single critter in sight. Great day in the woods though?just the kind of ?unsuccessful? hunt I?ll gladly do again.

Those are some mighty fine looking rifles you guys are using. I'm assuming that is also Ginger in that one photo. Thanks for sharing those pictures. Hope you have better luck the next time you hit the trail.
