An End To A Long Season


Well the sun has set on another whitetail deer season. I have to say that this season was a bit to long for this man "could it be that my age is sneaking up on me". As I unpacked my hunting gear I realized that this is the first year in the last 20 years that I had not harvested a deer. As the years go by I have great satisfaction watching my son go through the same hunting routine as I do. He has developed into a great steward of the land. Enrique (age 11) did harvest a management buck this year. He has shot a deer every year since he was five. This year however we spent half the time shooting with the Canon instead with the Remington. Above are two photos that my son took from the deer blind this year. First buck is a yearling that was a frequent visitor to the feeder. The sunset photo was beautiful! It was taken about 15 minutes before he shot his deer. Well time to dust off the golf clubs!
