    Man what a year I'm having and season hasn't even started yet .

    After my son got home from Afghanistan last year I convinced him to come home and deer hunt with me again . I bought his tag and took him to my favorite stands and he ended up shooting a decent 8 point . I absolutely had a blast those few days :nana:

    Just got off the phone with him and he's taking 3 weeks off work this year for bow and rifle hunting with me . Got to admit I was shocked as I never new him to have an interest in bowhunting but it's never to late to start . Love it when the kids come home and let me put them on deer and 3 weeks with the grandson wont be bad either :woot:

    That sounds great. I got my wife into hunting last year and I think I was more excited to get her first deer than I was when I got mine. Always fun to share the outdoors with family and friends.

    Thanks all , I'll be sure to thank him for everyone !!

    Starting to think I'll shoot the first decent buck that steps out this year and then start filming everyone else . I'll have 3 kids home hunting with me this year and my little brother called the other day wanting to know if I had room for him so he'll be coming up from Oklahoma . Of coarse I did tell the brother that the kids get first choice on my best stands so his better options are dwindling :)

    My older brother introduced me to hunting back in the early 2000's, and there is nothing I enjoy more than spending a day in a stand/blind with him.
