Default Opening day harvest

I guess it's time I shared this with everyone. Opening day this year I scored a nice 8-pointer. I'll try to enclose a pic. Last year was my first year hunting. I was so green I had to get on the internet the night before to find out where to shoot the darn thing. After taking a button buck, that I thought was a doe until I turned him over and my friends 10 yr.old informed my doe had a pair. So All year I obsessed and researched and read about hunting. I even grabbed a bow and got in the woods with a weapon ASAP. It was not until opening gun day this year that I harvested some meat for the freezer along with a nice head. Ill tell about the hunt later, but suffice it to say that my obsessing all year was greatly rewarded. My wife and I and the kids even prayed about taking a nice one. As you can see from the photo,hunting became a family affair over the year. My son wants to be a hunter. He even had a dear hunting b-day party. My wife bought camoflauge clothes for the kids. My wife even help me tote the big boy out of the woods and made the kids late for school so they could come get the deer that Daddy killed. All I can say is God is good and it is good to be a hunter. Now the buck ain't no B&C, but I am told he is right repsectable for this area. Any way, Good luck in the woods, remember who provided them.
