Grandson's first deer hunt

(1/3) > >>

BrianS:
This weekend is our Youth Deer Hunt where our State DEC allows 14 and 15 year olds to hunt deer with a firearm with a Adult Mentor with them. Only the kids can hunt. It will be the first time my 14 yr old Grandson will be able to go deer hunting. I am not sure who is more excited Him or me? I am hopeful that he has a good time regardless of whether he gets a deer or not. Gear is all packed, just waiting on Saturday. Please keep your fingers crossed for him.

TrevorM:
That's awesome! Make sure you take lots of photo's.

Hawkdancer:

Very cool.  8)  I was twice his age when I went on my first deer hunt and I got to see a deer. It was a thrill.
Good luck to you both.

Grandson did very well today. We saw 15 deer this afternoon. Michael had the opportunity to shoot a spike but passed despite Papa trying my best to convince him to shoot it. He said he had all season and hoped to maybe get a little bigger deer that the Land Owner talked about. He kept his cool and I give him credit for that. We had a real nice day together. We are back out tomorrow. If that spike comes by again, I will do my best to convince him that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush but it is his decision. Stay tuned...............
