Eventfull September for Peter

Pete had two of the tags for 9 mile this year. This bull was a result of the public draw. I would say that it was about time for Peter to draw out. That bad part is that he was alone when he took this Monster. He had passed up 4 other bulls during the day. He was at the mouth of 16 and had left the bike in the meadow and hiked up the hill to the south. Saw this bull just as it was getting dark. Made one clean shot from about 100yrds. The bull jumped and ran downhill about 20 yards and fell on the road of the switchback going to sheep canyon. Peter called me about 10 pm and said that he needed help. Left about 6 am the next morning to help load and get him out. It was sure a beautiful day. What a great place!! Yes....... it is getting mounted!! I gave Pete one of the family tags this year so that he would have the opportunity to shoot if the right thing came along. You know how that is.......See a great buck and you have a bull tag or you see a nice Bull and you have a Deer tag. The taxidermist is sure going to love us this year. Max playing his first year of tackle football. He is #20 involved in the tackle.

Conover is a part of Drumline this year at Carbon High. Makes for some interesting moments like the Homecoming Parade and needing to be on the float with the football team.

Kind of reminds me of the days carrying my heavy horn in the day.
