Got up early this morning and got a cord of wood with the family including my eleven year old son Levi. Took the .22 along and he plinked a bit but we saw no grouse. came home and had lunch then he shot the pellet gun for quite a while, creating amputees from green army men (MEDIC! MEDIC! :grin:) then we headed up to a cut block where we'd spotted a buck twice previous and did some rattling. It was getting late so we didn't sit long but circled the large block to loop back to the truck and coming over a rise saw a buck heading to our last rattling location. The buck spotted us first but stopped at 80 yards and Levi double lunged him with his Grandfathers .270. The boy was SUPER pumped and hooked for life I think. :smile: :smile:

Nice job fellas! It is always nice to harvest something with Dad but doing it with Gpa's gun makes it more special.

Long time since we talked Clint. Good to hear from you. Congrats to the kid on his first deer. Maybe we will run into each other one of these years. Did you get Levi a recurve yet? I guess it is time eh?

Thanks guys :!:

Kirk, he shoots the bow lots but won't have the strength to pull hunting weight for at least five years. He's flung at a half dozen grouse this year but his light recurve won't shoot flat and those grouse are always just out of range. He did get a nice mixed bag of 2 spruce, 1 ruffed and 2 blue grouse this fall with the .410

JT drop in if you're ever by.

Sure have had a great fall, now can't wait for snow. Here's another pic just because.

Congrats on the buck. That is awsome. Some of you guys are truly giving your sons memories that will last a lifetime. I was lucky as my dad also took me with him when ever he could and to do whatever he was doing. You are shaping young lives in a very positive way.
