Bow Hunt 08


This was the first year that Jay R. put in for a bow tag and he got one. He was pretty excited about it and so was Trevin. Well there luck came through one Friday evening he jumped on the four wheeler with both the kids and the bow to see if there was anything they could see. Well about five minutes after they left they came flying back to the cabin. I guess they just got up and around the bend and there stood this little two point. Well Jay just couldn't pass it up. He said Trevins eyes were as round as a tuna can, so he let her rip and he actually hit on the first try. Way to go dad! Lucky for us our good friend Owen was there who is also a pro at skinning and gutting a deer so he did all the dirty work for us. He even took the meat home and cut and packed it. We have actually eaten several steaks of this big guy and they were delicious. Thanks to Owen for all your help and hospitality.

Way to go JR! I keep wondering what the %#@! Aaron is doing wrong! I think he needs to hang out with you more and get some tips!!! Maybe next year he will bring home some meat :)
