Just catchin' up after five days at the Classic, as Holeinthebowchuck and I pulled into Pappy's place last Wed. morning, there was a long bearded tom in the field across the road and I wondered how JW was progressing with his black hills hunt
I'm happy to read that it was a success
Congrats John!
just a suggestion, you should also make wingbone calls from the wings, they are very easy to make, and a great way to remember the hunt, you can write all of the important hunt info. on the call.
As for the rest of the story, I can sympathize with you a little bit, having been caught behind a forest service gate myself in the past. Lucky for me though, it was a chain across the road and we figured that if we took the canoe off of the top of the car we might just have enough room to get under it, so with me holding the chain as high as I could force it my girlfriend at the time scraped the car underneath and we were free!
No home town greasy spoon for us at the time, we headed for Micky Dee's.
