Title: Grand Nephews Score
Post by: SHADE on September 04, 2010, 10:04:44 PM: My 11 year old Grand Nephew shot his first deer opening day of the 2010 archery season.
Congratulations to the new hunter, and thanks for letting me be there.

I just told him 18 feet doesn't seem like much, until you are falling from it. :o

Post by: SHADE on September 05, 2010, 08:05:07 AM: He has pretty much been raised by his grandma, and I would hate to get him traumatized with the very first time he went deer hunting. I told him that in some circles, the kid that gets his first kill gets blooded, in that they paint a bit of blood on the cheeks like war paint. I told him that I wasn't going to do it to him but he could do it if he wanted it.
I have the photo and some trailcam photos to match, and a video of the hunt, but I just can't afford the mounting. I do what I can for the kids and shooting and fishing gear for all my grandkids and the other lil ones takes a hefty toll on me pocket book... :dunno: I can help em get started though. ;)
