Young Guns - post pics!
In camp, I am the one with the camera and desire to preserve our hunting memories.
So, every year I print the pictures for my buddies as a gift.
This year was a real treat, having two 13 year old newbie's (the next generation) hunting with us.
I would look forward to the Young Guns, let's say ~ in college or under,
posting their exciting DEER hunting adventures and would enjoy a small story to go with the pic.
Parents... You can also add your kids to this deer post.
* How about it Simon08/OH, Rory/MO and ALL others, give us elder folks some joy during the holiday season!
The attached pic is of my buddies son and is his first two Woodcock,
- Sorry I didn't have a deer pic to start this post off with. (Please keep it to deer though!)
This story...
I had the young Lad on my side when he got his first bird! I told Ben to sit tight in a small opening as I pushed through
some bushes and pines.
All of a sudden the air was filled with the whistling of a Woodcock in flight and 1-shot from his
trusty 870 started his quest as a dignified little hunter ~ simply awesome for us elder statesman to witness!

RE: Young Guns - post pics!
Here is a picture of my buck that i shot this year on october 23. I currently go to college full time with an hour commute each wayand work full time but i manage to still find time to get in the stand. It helps that i get to hunt the property in which i work at. i actually grunted him in from a doe in the early pre rut here in michigan. He was aged to be only 2 1/2. I've been hunting this property for 3 years now and have been letting the small ones go and it finally paid off. Its tough, especially when all the nieghboring hunters shoot anything that walks, but i already have my eye on one for next year!
