Re: Wolf Hunting
Outstanding writing! As mentioned above it felt like I was sitting right there next to you. That last part with checking the weather made me laugh and spurred an adrenaline rush of my own.
Absolutely beautiful animal. Congratulations on the kill!

Re: Wolf Hunting
Great tale, its refreshing to hear a wolf hunt tale that is about the hunt and the majesty of the animal in question. Not the hate that surrounds many of them.
I've got to tell you though I'm jealous, with a new baby this fall I new I wouldn't have the time to dedicate to a wolf hunt but it sounded epic!

Re: Wolf Hunting
Thanks everyone, I appreciate the compliments. Although I never considered myself that great of a writer, maybe I'll have to do write ups of future endeavors!
I brought the wolf into the DNR for mandatory inspection. They said it was one of, if not the best looking wolf that had been registered. They took a sample of meat and harvested a tooth. They said I'll be given all the information they find out about him. Of course their scale was broken at the time but the biologist said he was all of 100+ lbs.
The taxidermist is doing a rug for me, should be done in 3-4 months. It will be interesting to see what the DNR can determine about the wolf.

Just an update-
The story made it into "The Varmint Hunter Magazine", below is a link to the magazine, go to page 18 for the story. Word has it the taxidermist should be receiving the pelt back form the tannery any day now and will be starting on the rug right away. Cant wait to get it back!

Congratulations and a great read. Now if the U.P. of MIchigan can get a season....oh yea!!!
Fantastic story, not only the story, but the delivery. I enjoyed every minute of it. I especially liked reading it in Sections, week by week in the telling.
I do hope the rug is done soon so we can see it, and am anxious to find out what the biologists tell you about it.
Cheers,
Tim
