The Slam





Chris Burden might have had one of the craziest 72 streaks of luck you can have in the SC outdoors during the fall. In that span he shot a nice 8 point buck that was chasing does - he misfired three times on the same deer at 20 yards and ended up shooting it later at 60. He shot a near Boone and Crockett buck on Savage Island the following day at 35 yards after it jumped up in front of him in a field. And, to top it all off, he came up on my boat, outfished me and got a lowcountry slam. I begged him to buy me a lottery ticket but he didnt do it.

It was great to catch up with him though and hear about all that has been going on in Steamboat this year. I think he assumed he was done for the year after taking a nice 6x6 bull elk with the bow but little did he know there was plenty more to come.

Cant believe he and Emily are expecting their second in March! Looking forward to having them back in this neck of the woods starting next spring.
