Title: Grandma's 1st deer X 2
Post by: patton1 on October 04, 2011, 07:13:50 AM: My grandfather pasted away earlier this year after fighting liver cancer. He was a great man and outdoorsman. Venison has always been a main source of meat for us growing up in MI so my grandma decided she was going to get her own deer this year. She hunted with a crossbow and got this little nubbin buck and doe last night about a half hour apart. I know they're tiny little things but she was so proud to be able to put meat on the table without my grandpa. She took them both right through the heart. We are all pretty proud of her. Just thought I would share. :)

Post by: brackens on October 05, 2011, 09:39:50 PM: Way to go Gma. This reminds me of my late grandma who would let the boys go out hunting, stay at the house, shoot a deer. She, pretty much shot one every year from her porch and would have it hanging before everyone got home. Priceless. :tup:
