Only my oldest boy's and my deer tag left to fill after today. My 10 year old dropped his doe after the 11:00am timeline passed. He couldn't shoot a doe until after 11am, and we had only seen 15 does and 1 buck to that point. The buck we saw was one we helped another dad and his daughter drag out from a 200 yard deep hole. Met a lot of nice folks today, dads with their kids.

Ryan made a 93 yard shot with the 6.8 SPC, it's both of their 2nd kills.


The cool thing is that Ryan wanted to help skin it, so I started the job and let him take over after I got the back legs started.



..and Ryan's friend even helped out.

Hunter took a nice blue grouse, so it was an awesome day with the boys.
