The good Lord has blessed me with many harvests but this one stands out to me. It was the first year my wife was going to hunt. I set up a buddy stand in what I thought would be a good spot. I found a pump 410 shot gun with a slug barrel for her. She practiced with it all summer and was ready to go. That morning I was going to grab the cam corder but she wouldnt let me (she later told me she wasnt sure if she would be able to shoot or not and thats why she didnt want the camera there) We got into the buddy stand well befoer light. At first light I could see several hundred yards off a deer walking along the creek. I didnt say anything since I didnt want her to get "buck fever". I watched this deer come right in at about 50 yards I pointed it out to her. THis deer walked within 10 yards of us and was broad side. She was aiming but didnt pull the trigger. It seemed like forever. I whispered "shoot" and right away bang. THe deer fell in its tracks. Turned out she shot it in the neck and the deer was instantly dead. It is better to be lucky then good I guess. I was very proud of her and more proud for this buck then any I have ever taken. I cant wait for my kids to start hunting.

I bet it would. Use the points to get the point across (sorry I couldnt help). Gives me a good idea to whip my kids with it. Thanks for the thought

One of my buddies in Canada found this shed and made it into what it is and shipped it to me free of charge.

Thanks guys. Anybody that wants to come out with me this sumer is more then welcome. I have 4 or 5 fishing bows and a boat thats ready. I usually go to turtle creek to bow fish. I have a great wife that likes to try all the hobbies I have. Something I learned long ago is that I can buy more outdoor suff if she thinks she can use it to.

Another thing I do alot of is bow fishing. Here are a few pics of fish I have harvested with a bow. Here is a pic of my wife with some rabits that she took with her pink shot gun.

I wanted to take the cam corder that day but she wouldnt let me. Harvested with a 410 shot gun my kids and I with a doe I harvested with a bow. a boar from Texas

Glad to hear that you decided not to hunt yotes with a .22. You can pick up .308s for cheap also.
