Well it just goes to show what a years difference makes hunting. One year we have a downer and the next we can be on top of the world. Congrats on a giant!!
Frankie is probably thinking Ernie now huh? Congrats man, he's a stud and you're a consistent big buck killer!
Thanks everyone for the kind words. The last month has been an emotional roller coaster so Im not sure I can fully explain my thoughts and feelings on our hunt. Im a talker but it has been very hard for me to find words here lately. Its hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that I can go from loosing our little girl Sawyer the second week of September to harvesting a mature buck on the first of October. Im sure there will be a point in my life where I can understand it all but for right now Im just ok with the fact that I cant understand. The hunt was awesome. The buck has been there all summer and has been a consistent daylight walker. Frank and I both felt like we were in the ball game with the weather pattern that we had. I wont tell the whole story youll just have to watch it on Friday. But heres what I will tell you. When it was all said and done we laughed we cried and hell dam Frank even hugged me. Then we shut the cameras off and just enjoyed the moment for what it was and we didnt turn them back on until the next morning. I know its just a camera but I just felt like I needed to take it back to the basics and soak it all in. As far as Ernie goes. He is around. Hes getting back to his old ways. We were going to do a hit list segment on him but my family issues kept that from happening. Truthfully after all thats happened im not to worried about hunting him. I have several other mature deer around and Im not sure that mentally im ready to go back to hunting one buck.Frank, my Dad and My son all have tags and I would love to have one of them take him. I just want to get to enjoy the moment. Here are a couple of pics that I have of him from this summer.
Cinton, I am so sorry for your loss and you and your family have been in my prayers since I first read of this. It is never easy and although I do not know you personally, I do know that you sure are one heck of a man from what I see on BHOD. God has his reasons and his ways and some of these things we may never understand. Hang in there bud and stay strong. My deepest regards go to you and your family. She must be proud looking down on you seeing what an amazing deer you have just harvested. Congratulations on a heck of a deer brother, he was def for Sawyer! God bless! Nick
Have been praying as well Clinton ever since hearing about the tragedy. God works in a very mysterious way, and at times no answers are given for some time if ever. Blessing brother, I bet it was quite the moment...and to be honest one that no cameras deserved to be around for. Will continue praying for you and your family as the healing lasts a long long time. Blessings Brother.
Great deer. Clinton, I'm trying to figure out from the pics but can't. Is your quiver attached to your bow? If so, how is it under the sight bar? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Clinton, i don't know you personally, but you have been one of my favorites since i've started to watch the show. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time.
