Well, last weekend was pretty exciting for me. I finally harvested my first big game. 45 years old, but only my 3rd year hunting, and really the 1st year actually putting in real effort.

I watched a lot of videos, read books, listened to podcasts, read lots on forums and listened to my friends that have years and years of hunting experience.

I took a buddy with me and we put in a classic textbook spot and stalk on this group of whitetail does, it was so much fun!

I did miss my first shot on one of them at a little over 90 yards, but was gifted a second chance. After reloading, a doe walked right up the hill at us and I was able to put her down at 25-30 yards.

I just wanna say thanks for all the advice and great information y'all put out there for us newbies to soak up.

Honestly, It doesn’t matter how many deer you kill, you’ll never forget your first. I’ve been blessed to take a lot of deer in my life, including several trophy bucks and I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited than I was to take my first. I shot a whitetail spike in 1991 near colville and can still remember it like it was yesterday. Two of my boys got first deer this year as well! Congrats, I hope the love of hunting never leaves you. I sure have enjoyed the ride and still can’t sleep some nights the day before some of my favorite seasons open.

That's a really good picture to capture the memory of your first deer harvest! If you haven't already, take one of the back straps, cut up some medallions and cook em' however you like red meat cooked. That flavor of what you worked for is like nothing else.

Perfect, well done and you couldn't ask for better scenery for that pic.
