December Rifle Hunt
I just wanted to take a moment to thank all the guys at 180 Outdoors for a great opportunity to hunt on their properties. It is not always about what you kill that makes the trip a successful hunt. I enjoyed the opportunity to experience hunting Southeast Kansas for my first time. Although I did not come away with my trophy this trip, I did come away with memories that will last forever. You guys had done the hard work and put me in the right spot. You gave me the opportunity to see huge deer within 100 yards everyday. I am grateful to come away with no less than a heart pounding excitement of seeing a 170 + deer very close. I learned some things on this trip about properly aging a deer, about patience, about being prepared, and to just enjoy what GOD has placed around us. The friendships that were made, the fellowship that was shared, and the time spent watching grown men act like little kids discussing their days around the bonfire were a wonderful thing. I look forward to coming back again and sharing in another wonderful experience. Next year though I will be ready, have my equipment checked, and not to gaze so long in amazement at what stands before me. I thank everyone, Matt, Devin, Jake, and Joe for being there to assist and guide thoroughly. May this become a tradition that we all continue to enjoy and share
