Lady Luck Smiles!!! on DAD also!
« on: October 07, 2009, 10:09:00 AM »
Hey Folks,

Many of you have watched my son grow over the years and shared in his success.  Last night he made a great shot on a deer that got just a little too close.

You know it's funny....he's now 17 and has taken some real nice animals but I can still feel the waves of excitement coming off just standing next to him!  Another moment to remember!

The Silvertip strikes again!

A few days later I got my turn and my son had the opportunity to drag Dad's deer!

Well, Lady Luck has a LOVELY smile, but your son certainly did his part well, also!

Congratulations... to BOTH of you!  :thumbsup:

Thanks everyone for chime in on my son's behalf.  Last night I had the opportunity to make my son work a little for me in return.

Hope everyone's enjoying their season.
