Title: Heading out with icicle creek outfitters update with pics
Post by: huntnfmly on October 10, 2023, 04:01:06 PM: Tagging along with Son in-law with horses for opening weekend should be fun again. I’ve taken my daughters out with Bruce and his crew for these day hunts a couple times It will be son in laws first time on horses and will be his first deer if successful.
They had a rough high hunt but you never know
We just enjoy getting out harvesting an animal is just a bonus
Good luck to all this weekend

Dropped down the ridge we were on and up the other side to confirm he was legal
Son in laws first he was very excited to say the least
Got to about a 100yrds and had to wait for him to turn son in law made a perfect heart shot

Memories made. :tup:

That’s what it’s about even how bad my knees felt getting off the horse at the end of the second day I couldn’t take a step for a few minutes 😂

Post by: 300rum on October 18, 2023, 01:51:10 PM: Hmm Your stirrups were turned. Maybe they were too long. Sometimes they make them too long so that it's easier to mount. Or maybe you need more practice. :chuckle:

That was son in law in pics but definitely need more practice that was his first time on a horse and I hadn’t been on one since last time 15 yrs ago
I didn’t notice the turned stirrups but I’m no horse guy😂👍
