Today was Ohio's gun opener and I took dad out for a hunt. As many of you know that is familiar with my season I have been trying to get dad set up for a deer this year pretty hard. Well it started to rain last night and was raining pretty good this morning but we had our elevated blind set up and was nice and cozy! Sunrise was 7:30 and at 7:50 a nice four point came out at 75 yards. He stood broad side and dad took the shot. Hit high shoulder lower neck and the deer fell in its tracks! Was to excited to turn on camera, had it sitting there waiting, just forgot about it. Dad was on cloud nine and I was too!! Here is him and his first buck!!

Hunting is like Marriage, you get out of it what you put in it. Sometimes you score and sometimes you don't, but its always fun going out!
I worked hard trying to pose that deer!! Dad was giving me funny looks and was wandering what in the heck I was doing to his deer! Them legs stiffen up fast and do not like to cooperate! Glad I was able to get it done!

Major Kudos to you and your dad!! I sure wish I had been able to hunt with my old man before he kicked off on us. You got memories that money can't buy that you will have forever.
You told us you were gonna put him on a deer if at all possible and you came thru. I can just see the expression on his face when you were stuffing the bucks tounge back in and posing him. My kids thought I was nuts when they saw me washing my last deers face with a GOOD facecloth and warm water.
Your a good son and dad must be as proud of you as he is of his buck.
Atta Boy to both of you!!

Hotburn, when I got my first racked buck, my hunting buddy took several pictures of course of my buck and we enjoyed those pictures almost the entire December I killed it. But when Christmas came around, what do you think his present was to me. That's right, a framed picture of my buck. All 8x10 of my glorious buck. I have treasured this picture above all others. Please, please do the same for your dad and wait till Christmas. It'll mean a lot more to him then. You are a good son for working so hard for him to get this buck. Congrats a ton man.
