Title: Single season World Slam
Post by: neal on May 13, 2023, 07:08:52 PM
Wife and I were able to each complete a single season World slam this spring. She finished hers in Chihuahua Mexico on Tuesday and I finished mine in my home state of WI this morning with a very unique Eastern. Been a heck of a fun spring with around 18,000 air and ground miles traveled and countless miles walked. I'd do it all over again, the memories made are priceless!!

I like that first one a lot.   I've seen and killed them with the barring, but no where near that extent.   Congrats to you both, well done!

Wow, congratulations and great job to you Neal and your wife! I'm sitting in an airport right now about to board the last flight of a long day of travel meet a buddy and go to some places we've been planning for over a year. Don't get me wrong I enjoy hunting with buddies and by myself a lot, but I would love to have my wife here with me now to see and experience the things I know that are in store even if she didn't carry or touch a gun.

Appreciate all the kind words! It was an amazing,, unforgettable spring. Crazy would be an understatement, some mornings we'd wake up and wasn't sure what state or country we were in, sometimes only home for 1-2 days before the next hunt. Definitely something I'll never regret doing!!

If anyone is wanting to try it or just looking to hunt a certain subspecies let me know where we had to get an outfitter we had a great time! And would definitely go back.

As for what I'm going to do now? 2 weeks of hunting here in WI yet, then some vacation time with my wife and back to the shop building strikers and pot calls for Hooks Custom Calls and my custom stuff.
