Cape Buffalo is my dream hunt. Weather I can pull it off or not is another question. For the same money a guy can shoot multiple plains game so I guess that's another delima. Either way I'm definately planing a return trip.( Been there once)
Enjoy your family and friends today as they may not be here tomorow.

A real nice whitetail buck would be good,a moose or elk if I could ever get drawn here.The last two winters beat up the speed goats so bad I doubt if we will have a season on them.two winters ago we had 38% winter kill in the area I hunt.

I agree with you guys... why does all the fun stuff have to be so damn expensive!
this year: Whitetail South Dakota Mule deer (if drawn) MN Black Bear (if drawn)
Future: One day If God is willing, I am going to make it to Africa. Sucks that Handgunners are limited in where they can legally hunt! Eland (Lord Derby's would be awesome, but Livingston or cape would do!) Cape buffalo many of the plains game elk bison caribou moose
I am finding i am being long "winded" but i guess i have a huge bucket list lol

Man, I would be more than happy to jjust kill some local stuff. Moose & black bear are both definetly on the list to chase with the handgun this year. My brown bear tag from last year is still valid this spring, but I'll probably never draw another so I'm leaning toward the Marlin Guide Gun in 450 for that hunt. We'll see.

...well anything in the good ole USA! My Wife and I have had a conversation involving that very topic. As much as I would enjoy Africa, and as much as Mr. Ed keeps prodding... LOL, my goal is to hunt everything I can in North America!!!

I am still looking for a close to or 200+ Mule Deer in West Texas--
I also would love to kill one of these big LA bucks I see on my camera every year and never see in the daylight.
Hope to do a Prarie Dog hunt this year too
If it jams force it! If it breaks it needed replacing anyway.

Well, in the short term "This year".
Go on a hunt with my only son, not just a trip out the back door like usual but hopefully an Antelope hunt in WY and if we are extremely lucky in the ND lottery draw, a Muley hunt in the ND Badlands. We just got through his last year of high school wrestling and he finished 7th in the state at 140 lbs, so this fall it is off to college and who knows what else, want to do something memorable before I am to old and he has his own thing going on, my how the years have flown by.
The good Lord gives us "Life" a "Window Of Opportunity" what we do with this opportunity, defines who we are and what we become.

As far as wish list goes, going back to Africa (this time with the short guns) is definitely on the list. Plains game primarily, but a buff would top it all for me.
And as long as I'm wishing, I'll throw in a brown bear, elk, moose, muley, and a host of other North American game that I would love to eventually pursue with the pistols.
This year, I may try to work in an antelope hunt along with the normal pursuits (whitetails, hogs, varmints).
