Well didn't get shunked though it was tough hunting this year. We had over 8 1/2 inches of rain in 4 days. made getting to the hunting woods tough. Before that we had 20 and 35 mph winds and the tree stand felt more like a swing than a stand. Seen quite a few deer but the big boys alluded us this year. I got a 3yr old 8 point buck when is good eating in my book. Not trophy by no means but a trophy hunt to remember as I got to share with Dad again.

Like I said it rained a bunch and there was no way we could reach our hunting area with a truck. We had to ride the four wheelers for about 5 miles to reach our area and then about a half mile off the road. Dads 77 and still gets out there and hits it hard. I really enjoy sharing time with him. He taught me to hunt and fish and took me to places that otherwise I would never had gone. He never deer hunt till about four years ago and last year was his first time to ever turkey hunt by calling them in with a call and he scored a double on his first hunt. The only deer he got a shot at was this doe or a little spike so the nice doe. 156 yds. and he still put the shot right in the neck. Any hoo thought I would share these with yall.

No matter what the head looks like, that's some good eating right there! I'm sure the most important thing is you got to spend time with your Dad, super cool Rodney!! Tony
 
Time in the woods, time with your dad, priceless. I always took the first doe I got a shot at to fill the freezer, then I would buck hunt. That's a respectable buck and nothing to be ashamed of. When I hunted I was primarily a bow hunter, took a couple with a gun but archery was my thing, it was just natural too me, the gun hunting wasn't. I don't know why. Archery even allowed me to shoot 2 deer within seconds of each other, never would have pulled that off with a gun. I had to sell my land years ago and haven't hunted since then, just not in me anymore.
