EdB Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Anyone going out for the youth hunt this weekend? I'm taking a friends 16 year old, his last year for this hunt. It's rare when I say this but I can't wait for the alarm clock to go off in the morning.
DIRTY DOG Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 good luck and great job on showing a young person the finer this in life
Nailer Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 I made the mistake of making my son gut his own deer last year. Now he wants nothing to do with it:( Good Luck on you endeavors. Bring the camera and take lots of photos. Last year.
huntingfool43 Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 Good luck EdB, hope your youth hunter bags a trophy. Can't wait till my daughter is old enough to take out.
Priority1 Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 GL to all the youthful deer hunters. My grandson is hunting with his uncle today.
EdB Posted September 27, 2008 Author Posted September 27, 2008 The kid got a doe!!!! I had a blast He was in a ladder stand, I took my light weight spike'n tree stand, locked it in in the dark and sat next to him. I never get excited when a doe comes in but for some reason this morning, my heart was pounding watching it unfold. I spotted her coming in and wispered to Rigel to turn around. He got turned, saw her and got the gun up. She presented a nice broadside at 30 yards, at least from my seat. Rigel said her vitals where behind a tree from his position. I was wispering, shoot, shoot, and she started coming directly at us. She came into 15 yards and you could tell she got a wiff of us or sensed us in the tree and she started to turn around. Rigel shot and dropped her. It was a great morning. I had lot's of fun! We are buck hunting tomorrow!
