Title: 2012 Archery Grand Slam
Post by: Bigsho69 on May 09, 2012, 02:55:28 PM
Three states, several thousand miles on the road, and a total of 5 1/2 hours of total hunting time in the blind.  It was a great journey and something I have been wanting to do for several years.  I finally committed to doing it and had some really great luck as well.  Thanks to my friends and family that supported me.  Also a special thanks to Wendell Rye for making me a fantastic yellowheart anodized aluminum call that managed to call ALL four birds into bow range.
