RE: Year 2 for my young hunter !!! update 10/10/05
After 2 to 3 weeks of me telling my son he needs to put a treestand up were 2 plots of woods, 2 fields and a swamp form a funnelarea hefinally decided to go sit in the corner of the funnel. He used some down tree branches to make a quick ground blind and settled in.
He saw 3 does and a huge ( his words) 8 point all walk within 15 yards of him. He said he couldnt get his bow up cause the buck was acting cautious.
So, to make a long story short when I picked him up at the road edge he jumped in and said " ok Dad maybe you do know something about hunting".
So far this year he has not taken a shot but he is learning valuable lessons about bowhunting. Who wants to bet after school tomm. he will want me to help him hang a stand in that corner?)
