Only my oldest boy's and my deer tag left to fill after today. My 10 year old dropped his doe after the 11:00am timeline passed. He couldn't shoot a doe until after 11am, and we had only seen 15 does and 1 buck to that point. The buck we saw was one we helped another dad and his daughter drag out from a 200 yard deep hole. Met a lot of nice folks today, dads with their kids.
Ryan made a 93 yard shot with the 6.8 SPC, it's both of their 2nd kills.

The cool thing is that Ryan wanted to help skin it, so I started the job and let him take over after I got the back legs started.


..and Ryan's friend even helped out.

Hunter took a nice blue grouse, so it was an awesome day with the boys.
Met your cousin Marty, nice guy.

Andy consider the logistics of the next 6-7 years or so? 3 deer+3 elk+3 bears+many ducks+many geese+many grouse+many fish. You should start planning on another freezer also.;)

I have 2 chest freezers, 2 uprights, and 2 beer/bait fridges, so I have some storage.
