Great job Ross. I'm 10 yrs. older than you, and took another ram in Wyo. 3 yrs. ago and a 6x6 bull last fall. If you make fitness a lifestyle, you'll have many more good years of chasin' 'em!

Day 32
Limited time so balls to wall sprint
30 minute stairs like chasin bullwith limited light always go after them if talking never know what the next day brings
Cranked the sweat remembering this 5 yd nidaho bull that screamed at 15 yds and swung beauitifully broadside at five yds
3 more days before the shots for more sweating then some down time

Day33
Limited time again
20 minute intervals on the stairs 108 floors
Sit-ups
And total body workout and play time with the bow

Day34
Last long workout prior to season from here will be intervals and no longer than 30 minute cardio through November
Felt good to get it done and good improvement through the five weeks
Tbt to a time when I had only had 6 knee surgeries versus tenUsed my bull rush tactic on this herd bull in the jungles. Played with him for awhile finally bugled ran in to about 30 yds bugled again and got ready.....nothing like shooting them at ten yds as they scream coming in hard
Tomorrow is knee injection day

I would say you have conquered the stair monster. Very impressive.

After a week reprieve a quick 30 on treadmill and stairs and dialed in the tikka last night at the range Always tough for a good squeeze of trigger with cannons going off 5 ft away and casings hitting you but managed to put the last one in the bull at 220 yds after some slight adjustments. Final archery prep and check cameras next weekend and hunting in 14 days
