Deer Slayers

Opening weekend of deer season went pretty well for us this year, Dad, Dave and I all got up that Saturday morning and pursued those terrible menaces of nature called DEER. We all know how dangerous those creatures are and despite everything you learned by watching the movie Bambi, those animals are nothing but trouble.

Okay, I'm full of it, they aren't that bad....but they taste good. ANYWAY, i digress.

The three of us set out for Dave's acreage and sat through the cold windy morning and bagged two eight pointers and a cute little baby. Just look at the picture, I think Dad had the best catch.

That's the first antlered buck I've ever gotten (we won't talk about the other one) I thought it was pretty nice, here's a better picture, excuse the open mouth, his jaw was broken from my shot.

The only thing that didn't work out for me this year was that my brother Jonah called me early the next Saturday to inform me that he also got his first ever antlered buck (first ever deer) and it was only a ten pointer. JERK. I'll see if he'll give me his picture and we'll put it up here too.
