THE WOLF OF MY DREAMS!!!… The challenges of wolf hunting- you sit there staring into space, in a fog, your mind goes numb, for who knows how long… then all of a sudden, it happens.

And when you spot a wolf, or a pack of wolves, your emotions REDLINE!!! You go from a lethargic daze to gasping for air… IT’S WILD!!! Let me tell you the story of this wolf… My friend Mark McKay, Richy and I were climbing in our blind at daybreak. I was sliding my feet into the bottom of my Heater Body Suit and just about to zip it up when I heard someone say, “WOLVES!!!” Remember the emotions I was telling you about. 🤯🤯🤯… Mark scooted into the blind and informed us he had just seen the whole pack, and they were coming our way! I quietly racked a shell in my Browning 7mm, and gave myself a pep talk about gathering my “chickens!” Eight wolves came into sight!!! They were about 170 yards away down over the ledge of a beaver dam. They held up just barely in a small shooting lane. That’s when I noticed this wolf. His shoulders were noticeably taller than all the others, and I loved his colour!!! Right then I decided that he was the one I wanted to shoot. And as I made that decision, he laid down. Three of the wolves kept coming towards us, including an absolutely gorgeous dark one. He came up over the rise of the beaver dam and stood proud at eighty yards. I panned my scope over to him. It was one of the most amazing sights I’ve ever seen. That big dark wolf’s features were STUNNING!!! He was magnificent!!! My crosshairs were right on his chest. I whispered to Mark and Richy, “I’m an idiot, but I’m gonna wait for the big white creamy one.” Right then, a smaller wolf to our right winded us and started loping away! The big white creamy wolf rose back his feat, and my crosshairs met him on the spot… BOOM!!! This is one on the top three greatest days in my hunting career… and the story ain’t over! 😎 This wolf is FREAKING AMAZING!!! 🤯🤯🤯… and I am incredibly grateful for my friend Mark McKay.
