Well I took my 2 older kiddos out to the blind on 2 different days to see if we could call in a long beard. No luck putting a bird in the freezer but we saw birds and had a great time. The first day I took Isabel. We spotted a hen in the field on the way to the blind. We snuck up from behind the blind. Then we started calling. The hen walked by at 15yrds and just fed infront of us for half hr. No long beard in site that day.
The next day I took Isaac out. As soon as we got in the blind and called. A tom and a hen popped over the hill but would never close the distance. So me and Isaac got out of the blind a little later. We cut through the woods to try and cut them off. Well we never saw the birds again but as we walked into another small field a doe came out on the other side and never saw us. She ran towards us with tail down just a little trot. She came 15 yrds from us and just went in the woods. We were about 20yrds into a field. We just froze in place and she never saw us. My son is 4 and he did so good at being still. He asked me later why didn't you shoot that doe dad. I told him in the fall. She would have been mine. LOL Maybe
Good times with the kiddos. Sorry I forgot to take any pics with the bow. I was using my Bear Blackpanther.
I think the boy was tired after a lot of walking in the woods.
