Guy had to be asleep! That close they both should have smelled each other.

I was elk hunting a few years back and fell asleep in the sunshine. I woke up and a bobcat was sitting 6 feet in front of me just looking at me. I guess he was just curious as to what was snoring on his turf.

I bet that guy could feel the hot breath of that bull elk blowing down his neck! Wow! What an experience.

"I am not against golf, since I cannot but suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering trout..." Paul O'Neil

"There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home." Roderick Haig-Brown, Fisherman's Spring, 1951
