standman Report post Posted November 17, 2004 (edited) I helped out my 10 year old cousin and my dad on a hunt this past weekend. It was my cousins first ever hunt. After goofing up on several bucks the first morning, he took this spike at 22 yards. He was so excited, it was great being there to experience it. This is a pic of my dads deer. Not a very good pic though. Thanks, Brian Edited January 1, 1970 by standman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More D Report post Posted November 18, 2004 I wish that at the age of ten I could have got my first deer! That looks like one happy boy, and now hunting will keep him out of trouble! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
standman Report post Posted November 18, 2004 That was one happy 10 year old. He wouldnt quit talking about it the whole five days we were down there. Next year his brother turns ten so maybe we will have both boys hunting if they can get drawn. Thanks for the kind words. Brian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
recurveman Report post Posted November 18, 2004 I sure hope that a spike doesn't walk by me the first day. I would be tempted to shoot it. I just hope a monster shows up first thing so I can say I was trophy hunting. That is great you got a buck!!!!! My first deer was back in Michigan when I was 10 and it was really small. Much smaller than your spike. But I was very excited about it at the time. Later, recurveman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
