    Well yesterday was a Great day for my 11 year old Tanner. He got his first Deer in the youth weekend. It was a BB but to him/and me, a real trophy and an awesome moment shared. We couldnt be happier for him.The bigger Moma was trailing to far behind to get a shot and the BB was just about to step into our wind so I ask if he wanted to take the shot and he gave the nod. It was 30 yards with open sights with a single shot 20 ga. He said he didnt feel it go off :tu: It was spine shot and he had to do a follow up but handled it like a Man! It will eat very well. Ill never forget coaching over his shoulder and hearing his out of control breathing and mine mixed :tu: He mentioned after words how he couldnt breath right for some reason, I explained buck fever to him!! He wil be Bow hunting with Dad next year ;)

    my boy's first is still fresh in my mind from last year... such a special thing, especially when dad gets to share it with him... I think I was more thrilled than he was... I fully admit that I enjoy taking my kids hunting more than I like doing it for myself...

    congrats to him brotha!!!!! I know both of you are walkin on clouds today!!!! I promised my boy we'd mount his first deer, so he's got one in his room now... mom wasn't too fond of it but she lost that war...
