New England Grand Slam
« on: December 03, 2004, 09:43:14 AM »
I finally did it.  Today I completed a New England Grand Slam.  A New England Grand Slam is when you get a turkey, a black bear and a buck in any New England state all in the same year.  I have had 2/3 of one several times and this year I finally got to complete it.

125LB bear in Vermont 11/17/04
111LB spike horn buck in Massachusetts 12/3/04

That IS an accomplishment around here. By the areas you were hunting I would think you are in WMass because not many would come from VT to WMass to hunt.

and my fingers to fight.

Suppose you add a moose.  What would that be?

Well, some years back, I did a bear a deer, and a moose in the same year.
Now they've got the turkeys going again, I guess I've got to try harder, need to get all four to be of note now.
 ;D

Congratulations, on a full freezer!

Moose would be great to add to the list, just never been lucky enough to draw a permit. I did however go with a couple of guys who got one this fall though.
