The best trophy of All
 

Well, My son Billy and his friend Cody Came to elk camp this year with dreams of makeing there first bow hunting kill.


I have had a dream of being with my son on his first kill and we hunted hard. After a few days we got the deer wired and went on a killing spree:D Here's Billy and I getting ready for the shot.



We kind of got caught out in the open but spotted them moving toward us. I ducked in behind Billy and coach the shot. The results of all our hard work and nights of practice paid off.


I also had the privilage of guiding My buddy Mikes boy to his first buck.

With two on the pole are Camp sure looked better

The next morning we loaded up the truck and said happy trails to Eastern Oregon. but we still have two more firsts to complete this season. Stay tooned for Billy and Cody's first elk. Then maybe I'll get to hunt again. LOL

PS. I Cried and hugged my son so hard after his first deer. It was truly something I will never forget. That Makes that little buck the biggest trophey in the whole world.
Cheers Rich

That's awesome. It couldn't be any better than that. I can only hope I can enjoy the same experience with my two boys. One of them will soon be out there with the bow as soon as he can prove to me he's ready.

RE: The best trophey of All
 

That is awesome, I am almost 23 years old now and deer season was pretty much the only time I would get to spend with my dad just him and me, he is my favorite hunting partner, and my best friend. Its nice to look back and remember all the hunts and times that i can remember, its just an awesome feeling. Im sure your son feels the same way congrats on your trophy and good luck this season.

One of the things I look forward to most in life, being 26 now, is to have a son and raise him into the hunting world. I know it must be the greatest thing to have a son. ive been thinking about this alot lately. Gotta find a wife first!:D

Great pictures and story man, im sure youll have a hunting buddy for life.

RE: The best trophy of All
 

Thats what its all about:D

RE: The best trophey of All
 

Great story Rich!

RE: The best trophey of All
 

The memories created while hunting are what it is all about, not so much the kill. I have some very special memories of my father and grandfather that didn't involve harvesting an animal. Something only a hunter can understand I guess. Congrats on the great time afield with your son.

RE: The best trophey of All
 

Couldn't have said it better myself!

Congrats to those lucky guys...and to you for taking them and being there!!!

RE: The best trophey of All
 

Hope all of us have the opportunity to share something like that. Congrats to both of you.
