and then there is the trip down the mountain...when your legs feel numb and your knees seem like they are full of jelly and tacks...

and if you have to abandon your nine pound boat anchor on the way down, think of it as a learning experience...


ed’s description of grouse hunting doesn’t sound like it requires a gun of precision handling abilities.
Any light weight, stubby barrel, no choke scatter gun, that you can poke at a 10/15 yard flushing bird in desperation should work just swell. I mean it’s not like dove hunting! Yeeeehawwww!😀

Dodging lions and wasting time.....
