• Great day for the kiddos!!

    Talked my wife into going with us on Saturday morning to sit with Emily, 13, (due to the complexity of reloading the muzzleloader) so I could sit with Maggie, 11, and of course Zach, 18, hunted by himself. Just a little after daylight Maggie and I saw two deer cross the roadbed we were watching and right after that I got a text from Zach that he had a bad cap and 2 were heading to us. LOL

    About 8:30 or 9 I told Maggie we should be hearing Zach shoot soon and then got a text from Zach that he had a 5 ptr. down. A little while later Julie (wife) texted me that a small doe was heading our way. It stepped out and Maggie dropped her in her tracks. It wasn't long till we heard Emily shoot. I believe all total we saw about 11 deer Saturday morning and all the kids got the chance to harvest something.

      Thanks y'all!! My kids have hunted and fished with me since they were VERY little, and all of them can skin/quarter deer as well as fillet fish better than most of my adult friends. It took a lot of patience and a few lost fish and deer when they were little, but I am definitely reaping the rewards of taking them when they were little now. I love to spend time outdoors with them.
