Well, today is going to be a great day. I hope Loch got more sleep than I did
I have no idea how many kids I have taken hunting for their first Elk and Deer hunt but I am more excited about this hunt then any. Loch has been through so much for such a young man that I can't even imagine what he has had to overcome. However, this guy is always smiling, laughing and has the best personality and attitude of any young man. You would never know that he has been through 12 surgeries in his 11 years. We could all learn something from Loch.
They made it over yesterday with Uncle Jake and his two boys (15 & 17) that asked dad if it would be OK to give up their opening weekend to support Loch. We headed out around 4PM to go glass up some some bucks, the wind started howling and it looked like some weather may roll in so most of the deer were hunkered in. We did however see a couple nice three point bucks but we didn't get to see the new contender that just arrived yesterday chasing a doe with a swollen neck
seems early but this buck was showing some rutting activity. I'm pretty sure Loch's hit list may change this morning if we can turn him up and if he can stay off that crisp new trigger that Karl sent him
Loch is well prepared with all this gear you all have given him that he pulls out something new every hour, it hardly all fits in my truck.
It is almost go time, Loch has his game face on and is ready to roll. Thanks again to HuntWa for all the support and we will keep you updated.
NO MORE SLEEPS!
