Deer Down

Post by HEAD0001 »

Well we got my little buddy on a deer this evening. It wasn't easy. But we got 'er done.

He made a great front shoulder shot at about 40 yards. I taught him to say SQQUUUEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZEEEEEEEEEEEEE as he pulls the trigger. This has stopped him from yanking the trigger, and lifting his head off the stock. It really has worked out pretty good.

As large as a deer is it is still difficult to get a youngin on a deer. But it was worth it. Wouldn't trade it. Tom.

I think it's as much about whether or not they actually want to do it as it is about getting the shot on target.

The girl has an interesting outlook on camo pattern.

The expression on those kid's face makes me want to turn around to see whose A is about to get kicked.

Well done, Young Man!

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Congratulations to all. Lots of good venison there. It is good for him to see that he is helping feed the family.

That's really great. Daughter looks like that little tip of ear is about as close to grabbing that thing as she's going to get. :D

That little girl will suprsie you. Keith had cold feet, but she didn't complain a single bit. And she gets right in there with him. A couple of really great kids.

However they are not my children. They are my best friend's son and daughter. Tom.

No big deal Mike. This boy is a born hunter. And I really have a blast taking him. Tom.
