Little brother is hooked!!!
« on: October 07, 2008, 11:12:00 PM »
One of my little brothers went up north with my dad and I this weekend. It was his first time up in a treestand. He was hunting with my dad's 40# Bear Black Bear. The first night he didn't see anything but the second evening he had a doe with a fawn, and four other does all around him. He said he was shaking so bad he almost fell out of the tree, and that's what spooked the deer. I was nearby and hear them blow 12 times. I told him to limit his shot to 12 yards cause he needs to practice more, so he didn't get a shot at anything.

But when he talked to me he sounded so excited and wouldn't stop talking about it! I'm really happy for him, I think he's hooked!!!

That's neat! The first time I really had deer around me I remember talking like 90 mph. about it.

Yeah, he needs a little more patience though, the first night he got down about two hours before dark...little early. He's only in eigth grade though, and it was his first time...
