Successful Oregon Hunt

[The Oregonian]

Just got home Thursday night after a John Day Cali hunt. We floated the river for 5 days and found this guy early and my son hammered him. Camped on him for two nights and after an unsuccessful stalk on Sat we made it happen on Sunday. My son (14 yrs old) dislocated his kneecap 6 weeks ago at football practice but the doc said he wouldn't hurt his knee any worse and that it would really just be pain management that we would need to worry about until he has surgery in a few weeks. My son toughed it out and did great. We went with Sheep Mountain Outfitters and they were incredible - I highly recommend them if anyone ever draws an Oregon or Idaho tag. I worked with Jordan Christensen at The Draw for the tag and recommended raffles and applications and he was a huge help.

250 yard shot and he went down a few feet from where he was shot.
