That is awesome Garrick!! The look you had when you got your bull was absolutely priceless. You definitely felt the Rocky Mountain Rush. Can't wait for your next adventure (and to hear about last fall's elk hunt). Mahalo for taking along on this hunt.

Awesome bruddah Garrick!!! Curious if you know my friend Chris Stanley for mililani Oahu? He's a really awesome bow hunter, who taught me year's ago and I bought my first Hoyt compound from him. Mostly hunts In the islands, Molokai especially, but he's one of the best I know, and also a competitive archery guy!! Of interest, my friend who lived in eastern Colorado then moved to Arizona about 15 years ago, for hunting as he's a guide and world class archery hunter. He got a north American grand slam for all the sheep species with his long bow!!!!!!!!!!! Guys so humble, but few people have done that, and his list of Boone and Crockett and pope and Young animals is world class!!!!! Eastern Colorado is where he guided me to both mule deer and whitetail of over 200pts. He's taken several over the years of both out there!!! He's gotten booners of I believe every north American big game animal with his long bow. All fair chase, except he didn't hunt brown bear in Alaska. I used to have him and his wife come stay with me on the big island many years and take them fishing and sightseeing. I made my Alaska connection in kona when a guy came to spend the winter and lived next door to me. First time I ever took him and his friend fishing, I took them on a south point trip on my Force 30, and we caught everything trolling! 25 minutes out of Honokohau we hooked a nice 400+ blue marlin and so I turned around and took it back in to drop it off, then went right back out down to ka lae. We clean sweeped 2 days in a row, and they videoed the whole trip and it was just insane! First time either he and his cousin ever went deep sea fishing and it was full on multiple strikes on mahi and ono, like 5 poles and both handlines all at once and 30- 90 lb ahi's!! It was in October, and we never saw another boat down south pt. the whole time!!!! In 2 days trolling we had 2,800 lbs!!! Lucky buggahs!!!! I was really stoked for them though!!! We had 3 more marlin in the 200 lb class too!!! My boat had two 10 ft. long fish boxes with dividers I could pull so marlin went right in the brine!!! I also had a massive Ike ma, and other fish hold too. His Father came to visit from Alaska as he wanted a big blue marlin to put on his wall, and I got him a 585 lb blue that he had done and shipped to kenai and it hangs on now. His grandsons log cabin wall!!!!! Love the guys up there and of course all the hunters I've been so blessed to meet and hunt with over the years. I loved New Zealand for hunting, and surfing and fishing too!!! The kiwis are like us in Hawaii, super Aloha and welcoming great outdoor people!!!! Africa, well, thar was just so epic it was amazing!!! I'm friends with Jim Shockey from Canada, from way back from playing water polo against him in the 70's, and he's been a super hunting friend too!!! What a life!!!! So few people really get to experience the wild outdoors. Just calling huge bugling Elk in to within 10 yards is one of the most incredible things you can ever experience!!!! What a rush!!!! Lots of years of religiously applying for tags and building up points to get to hunt in dream places, some take so many years to draw, but it's been incredible and the friendships made last a lifetime!!!! Glad to see you enjoying it and spreading the Aloha brah!!!! D.L.

@@DonaldLibbey 🤙🏽 I don’t know Chris Stanley personally but definitely seen photos of him and looks like an awesome guy! Yes living the life of the outdoors and what it offers is my absolute passion! Being able to meet good people in the outdoors enjoying the meals and memories of past trips and possible future trips! I feel like that is the biggest highlight of spending time outdoors is the people I meet along the way! It’s amazing to find other that have the same passions! All amazing stories thank you for sharing! Hearing other stories always gets me pumped up and ready to get on more adventures! Always stoked to hear about others success and amazing memories🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽 aloha and thanks for the conment

[@DonaldLibbey]

@GarrickYamamoto awesome brah! Stoked for you! So much, I want to be careful of what I say, but perhaps sometime we could talk privately or when I get over to big island again I'll lykn ahead of time. I as most fisherman are very tight lipped and don't say much, but when I do find people I believe are sincere, and deserve it, I do like to share my knowledge of so.many decades fishing and specifics which h took me a long time to figure out. I really learned most by myself, but there were key individuals who helped me in my early years, many who were some of the best!!!! Aloha D.L

[@GarrickYamamoto]
