Christian Aders
9-year-old Christian suffers from Spina Bifida and has also lost the sight in one eye. Although he could easily give up and spend his life housebound in a wheelchair Christian won't let that happen. Christian says if he had good legs he would want to hunt whatever he could. Benefit4Kids sent Christian hunting with Bluff Creek Ranch just north of Austin TX. Although they have about 8 different exotic animals he could hunt for he likes the picture of the 4-horned ram and that is what he went after! A huge thank you goes out to Bluff Creek Ranch for helping Benefit4Kids with this young mans Wish. You can check out their operation at www.bluffcreekwildlife.com. Christian arrived at the ranch with anticipation and excitement building as the first day of hunting came slowly for this young man. Wednesday morning, Christian wasn't even out hunting but a few hours and saw a real nice hog he wanted to take. Benefit4Kids threw in the hog as a bonus for Christian, and he jumped at the opportunity. Thanks to board member, Jim Reifert, Christian was not only able to surprise everyone and hold the gun by himself, but with the aid of Jim's Laser sight he sent down for Christian to use, Christian was able to pull the trigger HIMSELF and harvest his first wild boar with only 1 shot!!!! Before this hunt took place, we were told someone would have to help Christian hold the gun, and probably pull the trigger for him. Bluff Creek sprung a surprise on everyone and set up a special pig roast in Christians honor with his first hog! The smile on this kids face was from ear to ear and while talking to his grandmother on the phone, she hardly understood a word he said because he was talking a mile a minute from excitement!! Later that week, Christian was once again able to pull off something nobody thought he could do once again, and that was live his dream of shooting a 4 horned ram.... ALL BY HIMSELF!!!!!! I don't have all the details on this story, but do know enough to put a huge smile on my face and warm feeling inside my heart knowing another less fortunate child was able to live their dream because of people like you who are the ones that gives Benefit4Kids the ability to make dreams like this come true! A huge Thank You goes out to Bluff Creek Ranch who donated this hunt for Christian, and our Nationwide States Director Jason Miller for his help and information in helping Christian live his dream!

Lyle Garvey
16-Year-Old Lyle Garvey from Pensyvania who suffers from an inoperable brain tumor will be heading to Colorado in his quest for a big Bull Elk. He'll be hunting with an outfitter who has helped B4K in the past and I have no doubt he'll have numerous chances to realize his dream of harvesting a nice bull. Sponsoring Lyle in his dream of taking a Colorado Elk with his RECURVE BOW is the guys and gals from the Michigan Traditional Bowhunters group. Steve and I recently attended their banquet in Holland MI and were taken back by the tremendous support and donations from them!! From a gathering of about 80 people that night, these people opened their hearts and wallets to Benefit4Kids and helped raised more than enough funds to send Lyle on his wish hunt this fall!! I would like to personally thank the members and board of directors of the Michigan Traditionals Bowhunters organization and look forward to a long a rewarding relationship with Benefit4Kids!! Look for an upcoming article in the Michigan Traditional Bowhunters publication about Lyle's hunt also. Specific details are still being worked out and we will let you know where Lyle will be hunting as soon as those details are available Lyle is like no kid we have ever granted a wish to before, between wanting to hunt Elk with his recurve (knowing his chances are very slim) and now wanting a combination camping/hunting trip. You see Lyle doesn't really want to go through an outfitter, but would rather go hunting with Benfit4Kids board member Jim Reifert! Jim heads to South West Colorado every fall for a month elk hunting (must be nice eh), and so Lyle and his dad will be joining Jim for a week chasing Elk through the Mountains of South West Colorado in mid to late September! Lyle and his dad will be making the trip from PA on Thursday the 15th, to Colorado where they will meet up with Steve Pray, John McIntosh, Jim Reifert, and many others on a very special Elk hunting trip! This trip is going to be very special and one to keep checking on as I will hopefully be doing a semi live update throughout the trip, as I get updates from Colorado throughout the week! Good luck everyone, especially you Lyle! Show them old guys how it's done bud! Despite many hard efforts and close calls, Lyle wasn't able to connect with a Colorado Elk, but had a blast chasing them throughout the mountains and being in camp with many great guys for a week! Many elk were sighted and called in including one Jim called in, a record book 7x7 one afternoon, but as luck would have it.... the opportunity just never presented it's self to Lyle! Upon leaving camp, Lyle and his dad talked about what a great time they had even though they were going home without a trophy, because the memories and experience would last them a lifetime! Thank you to the Michigan Traditional Bowhunters organization for your support and in sponsoring this trip! It's because of people and organizations like yourself that we are able to continue putting the smiles on the faces of these kids! Justin Hermansen
Justin Hermansen was only 12 years old when God had other plans for him. Justin suffered from an inoperable brain tumor and wanted nothing more than to go hunting! Benefit4Kids made this possible by sending Justin and his family to Deer Tracks Ranch in Northern MI in early November 2004 where he shot this huge 8 Point! Because of his condition, Oakridge Taxidermy in Waterford MI rushed the mount and we were able to present the trophy to Justin the first week of December 2004. Justin passed away 1 week later almost to the day. STEVEN BUTT’S WISH HUNT
On December 10th through December 14th Benefit4Kids sent 13 year old Steven Butts on an Outdoor Wish hunt for a big buck on the Eastern shores of Maryland. Steven is on the heart transplant list in New York and needs to receive a transplant by this summer. Steven was hunting with Steve Rupert who is one of the most knowledgeable people I know when it comes to whitetails. The weather during their hunt absolutely sucked and for the most part kept the deer from moving much. They saw some deer but no where near what they would have under normal circumstances. Although they hunted hard they didn't get a deer. Some might think the hunt was unsuccessful. They couldn't be more wrong. I talked with Steven last night on the phone and you could still hear the excitement in his voice. Steven did have a few does and small bucks that he could have taken but he was hoping for a big buck. They just weren't moving much in the bad weather. Wednesday brought driving rains, heavy winds and ice and they were unable to even get out hunting. On Thursday they did see several does and a small buck and at 9:30 a really good buck but there was no shot opportunity. Thursday evening they again saw 2 small bucks but Steven held out still hoping for the buck of his dreams. Friday once again the weather turned sour with heavy rains moving into the area again. Friday was also Steve Rupert's birthday and though he could have stayed home with his family the day found he and Steven out trying to get Steven his buck. They hunted the whole day but with the bad weather only saw a few small does. Maybe Saturday would be Steven's day. Saturday morning found the deer still bedded down from the brutal weather from the day before and Steven's chances of taking a big buck grew dim as they went out for the final hunt that afternoon. As Steven and his Dad sat in their blind they quietly talked about the hunt and the coming trip back home. Neither of them expected what happened next. As they whispered back and forth Steven looked out the window of the blind to see not one but 3 bucks and a doe standing 70 yards out in front of them in the woods. One of the bucks was a big 140 class with a drop tine. It was the type of buck Steven had hoped to get a crack at during his hunt. Steven slowly raised his gun as the buck stood there unaware of the hunters hidden in the blind. Then it happened. Steven slowly lowered his gun and told his Dad "the shot's just not right" and they watched as Steven's buck and the others slowly melted into the woods. Darkness soon came with 2 button bucks and a small doe being the only other deer to come by them that night. Steven's "Outdoor Wish" hunt had come to an end. As a hunter I know how hard Steven's decision was to make and I could not be prouder of him if he had taken that huge buck. When we talked on the phone I asked him why he didn't shoot and he told me it was "because he wasn't sure he could put a good shot on the deer where he was". To me when Steven made that decision he showed that he was a true hunter. Although Steven didn't get his "dream buck" this story isn't over yet. Steve Rupert says Steven is an incredible kid and has extended an open invitation to Steven to come back next year for another go at the huge bucks on Maryland's eastern shores. Steven said after he gets his new heart he's going to go back and instead of a wish hunt they'll have a celebration hunt. With any kind of luck they'll have another "successful hunt". Steve Pray President, Benefit4Kids B4K Notes: Steve Rupert of Shore Bet Outfitters in Maryland donated Steven’s Hunt. Benefit4Kids paid for Steven’s travel, food and lodging. Keith Tatum's Outdoor Wish
Day One, Sunday December 1st While driving to Michigan from Southern Georgia Keith and his dad saw a little snow in a plowed field in Ohio. Keith's dad told Keith "there's some snow, why don't you take a picture". Keith was convinced that it was actually cotton in the field instead of snow and didn't figure they'd see any snow on their hunt. Little did he know what awaited him in Michigan's frozen north. Bill met Keith and his dad at 10am at their motel in Gaylord, Mi. and took them out for breakfast. Although they had spoken many times on the phone this was their first "in person" chance to talk. Keith and his dad expected to go right to the ranch after breakfast but we had a little surprise stop off for them first. Bill told them they needed to make a quick stop to "pick up a few things for the hunt". Soon they pulled into Jay's Sporting Goods in Gaylord and as they entered the store Bill let the folks at the store know that "the kid with the birthday" was here. They were led to one of Jay's conference rooms where there was a surprise birthday party waiting for Keith. A cake was sitting there along with just a few items donated to Keith by Jay's. Jay's store manager Mark Copeland presented Keith with a new insulated camo jacket, insulated bibs, a great pair of LaCrosse boots and numerous other items like grunt calls, hand warmers, etc. to make sure this young boy from Georgia was nice and warm while hunting the frigid northern Michigan woods. Then just when Keith thought it couldn't get any better he was presented with a $500 gift certificate to use for a shopping spree at Jay's for any other outdoor goods he needed. Keith used part of the gift certificate to buy a new .22 mag rifle and scope so he could go small game hunting back home with his brothers. He was so excited at this point he didn't even know what else to get with the remainder of his gift certificate. Keith and his dad decided to come back to Jay's Weds. on their way home to pick up the gun and spend some time shopping then. After leaving Jay's they headed out to Muy Grande to get settled in for the next days hunt. When they got to the ranch Keith and his guide went to the range to "check the zero" on Keith's gun so if his buck of a lifetime stepped out he'd be ready. Back at the lodge Bill sat looking out at a large pond when a 140-class buck stepped out of the woods. The buck walked out onto the pond that was mostly frozen over only to fall through the thin ice. Bill said it was quite a sight to see this big buck fight his way out of the pond, shake himself off and saunter back into the woods with his pride seemingly just a little hurt. Keith returned from the range ready for the morning hunt and as they sat by the evening fire they couldn't help but admire the beauty of the newly fallen 6" of fresh snow covering the area. Tired from their long trips the hunters relaxed and told stories, as hunter will do. Tomorrows hunt looks promising. Maybe, just maybe tomorrow a dream will come true. Day Two, Monday December 2nd The Morning Hunt This morning as Keith, Bill and Derrick Keith's guide headed out in the pre-dawn darkness they were greeted by -4 degree temps and a beautiful Turkish cresent moon shining down on the fresh snow from the evening before. Not long after getting set up this morning they spotted an awesome 150 class 8 point that Keith and Derrick decided to go after. The buck never offered Keith a shot before melting back into the woods. They decided that this afternoon with the new snow they would try to do a spot and stalk hunt for this particular buck. Keith and Derrick left Bill back at the lodge to take some pictures while they headed out after the buck. Keith told Bill one thing he wants to do before he leaves the ranch is to take the time to accomplish another of his dreams he never thought he'd get the chance to do, he wants to build a Snowman. Bill has promised him that as soon as they get the chance they'll live that dream and spend some time making Keith's snowman. Day Two, Monday December 2nd Afternoon Hunt This afternoon Keith and Derrick were able to spot 5 different bucks including the one Keith is after but no shot opportunities presented themselves. One of the bucks was estimated to be around the 200 class and they rattled him in but he just wouldn't give Keith a clear shot. Keith is having an absolute ball and has had the pleasure of meeting and swaping stories around the fire with famed hunting author and videographer Mark Sullivan. Keith was so pumped up from today's hunt that he asked if they could skip breakfast in the morning so they can get out and get set up earlier tomorrow. Not much more to report tonight but tomorrows weather is looking real favorable for the hunt and with lady luck on his side maybe tomorrow Keith will be able to finally get a crack at his dream buck. Day Three, Tuesday December 3rd as described by Bill This morning's temperature was a whoppin’ 8 degrees! No moon this morning, but in the dawning light, the glistening of the ice crystals on the trees and grasses was beautiful. Today began with sitting in a blind again, but only for a short time. After about an hour, Derrick had some other ideas. I cannot say enough about Derrick. Take someone that has a degree in wildlife biology and forestry, toss him into a place like Muy Grande for over 4 years, make him Ranch Manager….and then have him guide. Wow….Derrick has more knowledge of whitetails than anyone I have ever met….and the owner of Muy Grande, Glen, wanted only the best for a guide for Keith..so Derrick was our man. So…..off to do a bit of spot ‘n stalking. About 9 am, a buck was seen…no one could get a good look at him at first, but his body size indicated that he was large…so the stalk was on ! The temp was now about 15 degrees, with about 6 inches of snow on the ground…crunchy, to say the least and not ideal stalking conditions. Getting within about 100 yards before the buck sensed what was going on, Keith and Derrick set up for a shot…but the buck didn’t get that big by being stupid..it took off, white flag flying. As the buck neared the 150 yard mark, Derrick grunted to him…the buck topped a small rise, and Derrick grunted again. The buck stopped…..glanced over his shoulder…then, as if the ultimate Birthday present, he turned broadside ! His tail was starting to flick…it would be only a matter of a few more seconds before he bolted into the woodline, a scant 20 yards away. Derrick told Keith to take him if he thought he could make the shot….Keith quickly dropped to one knee, steadied the rifle, clicked off the safety and squeeeeezzzed the trigger. WHAM ! THWACKK ! The buck kicked up like a mule and dove for the woodline. Unbelievable….if I had a picture of that buck standing broadside, and showed it to Keith and put a red mark right where he should shoot it….well, that’s EXACTLY where he hit it ! After waiting a bit, everyone eased up to the rise and looked down into the woodline….there he was !!!! A mere 25 yards from where he was initially shot. Later examination would reveal that Keith had completely taken off the top of the heart. 154 yard shot, offhand/kneeling with only a brief few seconds to make it happen….I gotta tell ya, I couldn’t be prouder ! Well, let’s fast forward to the late afternoon….the snow sucked….couldn’t pack it for anything, so a snowman was out of the question. That evening, we had a grand Birthday dinner….Sauteed backstraps (the Professional Hunter offered up his, so that Keith could take his home), with a wild cherry demi-glace’, asparagus, ceasar salad, and then a fantastic birthday cake made by Jeannie…Glen’s wife. Keith got more presents, including a shirt/hat logoed with Muy Grande on them, a video of Muy Grande hunts and Mark Sullivan gave him an autographed copy of his latest movie too ! Benefit4Kids gave him a custom made hunting knife, and then he also got a PSE Spyder bow, COMPLETELY setup including arrows, compliments of our own “Maco12”, owner of JJT outdoor sports. I had a birthday card for him that was signed by everyone at the ranch….15 total signatures, and we sung happy birthday to him. After dinner, Glen invited us over to his house (just next door) to watch videos….well, unbeknownst to us, we entered a MASSIVE log home, and went into an actual theatre ! Glen had this theatre built in his house, and the chairs were leather, reclining lazyboys. We watched some more of Mark’s safari movies, then back to the lodge to get some sleep. Oh, by the way…..Keith’s buck will be mounted for him also, so that he can display it in his house and keep them memories flowing. Day Four, Wednesday December 3rd Wednesday morning found Keith and his dad headed for home with some memories that will last them a lifetime. On their way they stopped by Jay's to pick up Keith's gun and finish his spending his gift certificate. Somehow I don't think they had any trouble finding something to talk about on the way home. Thanks to all of you who have helped to make this hunt possible for Keith by donating to Benefit4Kids. Tonight you can go to bed knowing you made a difference in the life of a young man and have helped put a smile on his face that I don't think you could get off with dynamite. God Bless each and every one of you. Steve Pray President, Benefit4Kids B4K Notes: Keith's hunt was donated by Muy Grande Ranch Keith's lodging, travel, shopping spree and taxidermy were covered by Benefit4Kids Keith also received many gifts from Jay's sporting goods and their employees. Eric Peterson's Outdoor Wish Hunt 14-year-old Eric Peterson is suffering from brain cancer. He’s been fighting it for some time now. He fights hard but it’s a tough fight with little time for all of the things a 14-year-old boy should be out doing. That is until now. This time he faced another battle, one he’s been looking forward to for some time now. Thanks to the funding made available by the auction at the 2003 MOJAM Eric was able to enter a battle of wits with a big bull elk on the bull's home turf. Our friend Bill Klein from Deer tracks Ranch guided Eric in his search for his dream of bagging a big bull. Thanks to the generosity of so many people not only was Eric able to hunt the hunt of his dreams but also his Mom, Dad, brother and 2 sisters were able to accompany him on his trip. I’d like to thank all of you who have supported Benefit4Kids in our quest to help kids. It’s because of what all of you do that we are able to grant the Outdoor Wishes of kids like Eric. Please join me in congratulating Eric winning his battle with the majestic Bull Elk. Who knows, it may be a steppingstone to winning an even more important battle Eric will return to after his hunt. God bless. Well as we all know sometimes bad weather can affect the outcome of any hunt no matter how well planned. Just prior to Eric’s hunt some really nasty weather moved into the area and things looked grim. Eric had one thing on his side and that was Bill Klein at Deer Tracks. After lunch on Friday Eric and Bill headed out in search of Eric’s bull. I had just talked to Bill on the phone and even this veteran of many hunts was more than a little nervous about the weather. He told me “Steve, if we don’t get him one tonight I’m not sure what’s going to happen. The weather looks really bad for the next few days and Eric can only hunt until Sunday night” before he has to head back for more treatments”. I wished Bill luck and silently prayed that things would go well and they could tag Eric’s bull that night. They hunted hard that night and got a glimpse of a few bulls but no shots presented themselves. As darkness fell they were still empty handed and the predicted rain was starting to fall and the winds whipped at 40+ mph. Once back at the lodge Eric told Bill “don’t worry we’ll get him tomorrow”. Bill smiled and told Eric “you bet” even though the weather was suppose to remain just terrible for the next 2 days. Eric and his family shared a great meal with Bill and they sat around the fireplace sharing stories of past hunts and hopes for the days ahead. That night as they headed for bed Bill crossed his fingers and said a few prayers. He told me that somehow he felt Eric was right and they’d get Eric’s bull even though experience told him it wasn’t going to happen. When the alarms went off early Saturday morning the wind was still howling pretty steadily. Although the weatherman had promised continued rain throughout the day there seemed to be a break in the clouds and the stars shone brightly overhead. Bill was sure his prayers had been answered and they quickly ate breakfast and headed back out to where they had seen a nice 6X6 the night before. Bill figured they didn’t have a lot of time so he brought one of the other guides along to try and help locate a bull for Eric. He wasn’t sure how long their luck would hold with the weather and figured and extra body would be a big help. As they were setting up to do some calling several bulls bugled in the distance. Bill hoped he could get one in close enough for Eric to get a shot. As the wind whipped around them it was sometimes hard to tell where the few bugles they heard were coming from. Bill told Eric it would be tough to get one in this weather but Eric just smiled seemingly knowing something Bill didn’t. As the morning hours ticked by Bill became increasingly anxious as the clouds started rolling back in. They were hanging low and threatening rain and the wind seemed to be picking up again. Suddenly Bill saw movement off to their left. They hadn’t heard anything from that direction earlier but in this wind anything could happen. Bill got Eric turned just as a big 6X6 walked out about 70 yards away. Eric quickly raised his rifle and though he thought his heart would jump out of his chest he calmly squeezed the trigger on his .35 Marlin. The bull stumbled at the shot but didn’t go down. Eric quickly put another round in the bull and he crumpled to the ground from 2 well placed shots. Eric’s outdoor wish of harvesting a big bull elk had come true and even if only for a short time his medical condition, doctors and needles were forgotten. After a short time admiring Eric’s trophy and taking some pictures Bill started the work of getting it back to the lodge. He and Eric were both anxious to get back and share their good fortune with Eric’s family. As they arrived back at the lodge and were met by a bunch a smiling faces thunder rolled in the distance and a steady rain started to fall. It didn’t matter now though. The kid with the infectious smile and the man who guided him to his dream had beaten the odds and both had memories that would last them a lifetime. Our thanks to all of you who have helped make Eric’s and other kids like him Outdoor Wishes come true. Without your caring and generosity kid’s like Eric may never have the chance to live their dreams. May your quivers always be full and the winds in your favor. God Bless. Steve Pray President, Benefit4Kids Chase Crews
Chase Crews is a 9 year old boy from Georgia suffering from a brain tumor. More than anything Chase wanted to go bear hunting. Due to his illness and his small size Chase's best bet to hunt bears was with a crossbow. Thanks to a whole bunch of very special people from the Excalibur website and the folks at Excalibur themselves Chase's dream came true. Chase went bear hunting with all around great guy Lance Coleman in the mountains of Northern Georgia. Although Chase didn't get a bear Lance and Chase aren't done yet. Lance plans to take Chase back out hunting until they finally put a tag on a wily bruin to complete Chase's Outdoor Wish. From Lance September 13th Hunted this morning and this evening to no avail. But he's there people. I'm tellin ya he's there. No if's and or buts about it big shaggy is there. But he's not there when I need him there (Guess that’s why they call it hunting) I turn the rocks over Wednesday? they're turned back over Friday evening. I turn them BACK over Fri. evening. They're turned back upside down this morning. (big rocks too) He's grubbin and eatin bugs along with a bit of browse. And I think he's doing it at night. Judging from his sign he's no rookie at this. Looks like he's been at it for a few years. This aint no little bear. and he aint get to where he is by bein stupid (and to be honest I would have welcomed a stupid one!) Chase's Dad Made it up this weekend and the blind is tiny. So I've took my treestand along and Let Chase and his Dad have the blind. I'm perched 15 feet up a red oak above them with a window in the blind turned to where I can peek in and they can see me if I motion one's coming (I have a real good vantage point perched up there above them) I know if it was my kid, I would want to be the one in the blind helping my kid make the shot on a bear. So I sure am happy he's here. There's a frontal system moving in tomorrow afternoon. Tomorrow mornings our last chance (Chase has appointments in Atlanta Monday and Surgery Tuesday) So lets all hope this front changes big shaggy's daily (or nightly) routine. gotta get some rest. 4 am comes early. From Lance September 15th Well.. we tried. But like I said. when I need a lil 150 pound 2 yr old dummy I get a big fat pro. This ol boy had already turned nocturnal. But we aint finished with him yet. If Chase has his strength up enough once the leaves fall off the trees and we can glass em a bit we're gonna try again. If he doesn't?? We're gonna get him next year. Either way that boy's gonna getta bear. William Linton's Outdoor Wish Hunt
15-year old William Linton from Fort Smith, AR. always wanted to kill a big bull Elk. William is suffering from Ewings Sarcoma (bone cancer) but thanks to folks like you tonight that is the furthest thing from young William's mind. Instead of thinking about his battle with cancer William is reliving over and over again what has turned out to be in his words "the best day of my life". After several days of hard hunting and seeing lot's of elk but with no shots today William's dream came true. Tonight as William shares dinner with the other hunters in camp he'll tell and I'm sure retell the story of his big 5x5 bull. I wish I could see the smiles around that campfire tonight. When I tell you William's hunt was meant to be you'll understand how true that was in how it all came together. When I first talked to William's dad he told me he had been trying for over a year to find some one to help him make his son's dream come true. He had read about Benefit4Kids Outdoor Wish program in Petersen's Hunting magazine and hoped maybe we could help. He was floored when less than 5 minutes into our conversation I told him that indeed his search had ended. We discussed for a while what kind of hunt William could handle and decided that his health was good enough with his Dr's permission to hunt for his elk in the Rockies. We just had to find an outfitter in one of the Western states to set the hunt up with. I told his dad I'd go to work on that and I'd get back with him once I found one. Little did I know I'd be calling him back within hours. About 45 minutes after our call ended my phone rang again and on the other end of it was a friend of mine from MBH & MLA. He told me he just got off the phone with the elk outfitter he had used for the last few years out in CO. He told me the outfitter was looking for an organization like B4K to work with and wanted to know if I'd be interested. I asked Doug to repeat what he just said so I could make sure I was hearing him right and Doug further explained that the outfitter would like to offer B4K a hunt if we could use it. I told Doug what had just happened and in his calm way he just said, "well then ya better give Tim a call". In less time than it took to type this Tim Hamilton from Badger Creek Outfitters set up a hunt for William with me on the phone. He promised to make it a good hunt and had a special area he planned to take William. When I called William's dad that night to give him the dates for William's hunt so he could do what he needed to on their end he could not believe it happened so fast. After doing this for the last 7 years although thing like this still surprise me, they no longer amaze me. I believe there are other forces at work when it comes to these special kids. So tonight thanks to Tim and Kate Hamilton at Badger Creek and so many of you here William will sleep well tonight. He'll no longer have to dream about his big bull elk but instead he and his dad will have a memory that will last their lifetimes. Tonight William will go to sleep with visions of his day still fresh in his mind and the words of Tim Hamilton will whisper him to sleep. You see Tim told William that not only did he get a big bull, he got the biggest bull of any hunter they've had this year. |
