Son's 1st deer
« on: October 11, 2008, 07:59:24 PM »
Well it finally came together this morning. After a couple years of trying with a bow we decided to go with a rifle this year and it worked out. I first have to say thanks to my friend coonhound who played a big part in my sons hunt ( he doesn't think so but he really did! ) thanks coon! well we started like everyone else got to the gate 45mins before light and started hiking got to a clear cut at first light we sat for an hour or so didn't see anything so we moved to another cut no sooner did we sit down and I look about a hundred yards into the cut and see a doe I quickly grab my bino's and see a couple more does and the last deer I see is a spike. I asked him if he wanted to take him and BOOM.. it's my sons first deer and I've been on cloud 9 all day! PRICELESS

congrats...there's something you'll never forget.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
