Awesome story!  I don't remember my first hunt. But I do remember my first buck I killed with my dad at my side.

Great story! I'll be taking my 6 year old out for his first hunt( he won't be carrying a rifle). We'll go out and sit in a spot with good wind for a couple/four hours or whenever he wants to wrap it up. Its all about him,its all about him,I will be repeating that in my head from the moment I rustle him out of bed to when we get back home. I don't which of us is more excited. Good luck all!

 :'( Kind of brings tears ot ones eyes when they remember things like that great read thanks.
I can remember taking brasso the night beofore our hunts just to polish one bullet that I would hopefully use on a deer.
Greasing my boots sharpening my knife getting camping gear ready all that.
Nice to remember.
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

Great story from another era I never experienced but taking my son out fit his first hunt this fall, I only hope I can make it as memorable for him.

Praying for you this week, Tony, knowing this is gonna be a big weekend for you.
Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate. - Psalm 127:3-5

Wow. You had me so drawn in I didnt want the story to end. Im 38 and have no kids. However, I do have 3 young nephews whose dads dont hunt. Just maybe I can share my experience with them. What a good story! Thanks for sharing :)

My dad and I never hunted together but I imagine it might have been like that.

Great story. Thanks.
