Some of you know we got custody of my wife's cousin back in August. He's 14. Brand new to shooting and hunting. I bought him a Savage hog hunter in .350 legend and we've been practicing.

We were out for the PA youth season (antlerless)Saturday back in October and all we saw close enough to shoot was bucks!

A local guy I know called my dad tonight. He was drawn for a youth hunt in southern Ohio but was unable to take his kid. The hunt is transferrable.

So, we get to head down to Salt Fork State park and hunt Saturday and Sunday. The hunt takes place around the lodge, campground, golf course.. Areas regularly closed to hunting. I've heard there's some BIG bucks running around in there.

I'm excited, hope it works out. He'll have a buck and a doe tag. Might get him a bonus doe tag too if we're seeing allot of deer.

I plan on having him shoot the first antlerless deer we see, get him his first deer. And I'll let him decide if he wants to take any buck that comes out or wait trying to get a nicer one.

updates to come this weekend!
