I took my son and daughter deer hunting today!
« on: November 26, 2009, 06:16:15 PM »
My son is 8 and my daughter is 12.   I took them deer hunting today.   

The first place we went we jumped a good size buck that was bedded down.   He had a really nice rack.   He would have been my biggest deer to date.   I didn't have a clear shot though :'( !   We were in really thick brush.   There were rubs and scrapes all over the place.   We're going to give it a few days and we're going back!

The second place we went to we didn't see any deer.   We did however see a bunch of rubs and scrapes and a lot of deer runs.

We had a blast.   My son, my father and I are pulling the engine and transmission out of my 78 Camaro tomorrow.   We'll head back down to where we saw the deer Saturday!

Hunting with my kids is a blast.   I absolutely love it.   It's time well spent! ;D

 Good for you and the kids. Ours always liked the nature walks. Good luck on the Buck.

I think the most important thing I showed them that day was to NOT take a shot unless it's a good clear safe shot.   That would have been the biggest buck I would have shot to date, they know that.   However, I never shoot unless I have a good clear safe shot.   I've always told them that...now they know!  ;D

 Good job!
 
 As long as it is a restore, I guess that is ok ;)
