    I am so proud of my son Jess. He graduated from Idaho's Hunter's Safety tonight and scored a 100% on his test too boot! He's so excited and he can not wait to hunt turkeys this spring and whitetails in the fall! We had a great time going to class together these past two weeks.

    Alright Shed! I had my son out in the woods after a snowstorm tracking deer with me the other day. He was really into it and was hillarious.
