Congrats on the doe. Their all trophies. By the way, I know what your friend was scared of; Most people if their not exposed to game when their young, they are simply scared of the touch. They feel uncomfortable to touch it. Thankfully, I was not only rotten and rambunctious when young, but my dad had me field dress my first deer when I was about 10. He walked me through it, but had me do it all. Because of this I have never had a problem touching game at all. Just think of the log as his first exposure to game. It should get better from here on. By the way, the fall was hilarious!! Good Luck the rest of the season.
