Two does

[rc67]

My dad and I each were able to fill our muzzleloader antlerless permits Friday morning. It was cold and calm, a perfect morning to be in the woods. Nothing better than watching the woods wake up. Turkeys were making a heck of a racket just over the ridge from me. We each had a nice mature doe on the ground by 8:30. I shot mine about 8 and heard dad shoot while I was field dressing my deer. They weren't big bucks but it was still a great hunt. I try to appreciate each deer season more since my dad is getting older (65) and even though he's healthy as a horse right now I've come to realize he won't be around forever and next year is never a guarantee, for any of us.

We'll be out again in a few weeks for the late winter antlerless season.

Hang onto those moments. My dad wont hunt but I do hunt with a somewhat distant relation who is 75 years old now. He doesnt get out quite as much as he used to but I love sharing the time and stories with him.

Congratulations to you and your father. There is a lot more to hunting then the size of the deer. You have good memories and good eating ahead of you. way to go.
