olmos1010 Report post Posted January 10, 2016 Well, my 2016 Archery deer season is over early once again. Although this isn't my biggest buck to date this is by far going to be my most memorable. My ol man picked up his first bow a few years ago at 60 years old and decided he wanted to give Archery hunting a try. He seen me buying my tag over the counter every year and decided he was tired staying home while I was out chasing bucks. I set him up showed him the basics and off he went. He practiced all the time and the better he got the more into it he got. So after a couple years of blown stalks, missed shots, hunting highs and lows he finally got it done at 63 years old. To say he was pumped up would be an understatement, he was like a kid again. On the second day of the hunt he arrowed a nice desert muley. Now if that would have been it for our hunt I would of went home a happy man but 2 days later I was blessed with my own buck. I was the most emotional I've ever been after a kill. It wasn't because of the size of the animal. It was because it was the first time my ol man and I harvested together. 17 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
