They still don't let me sit alone either. I always have a grown up looking after me.

Ute hunt, I just got word we have a young female hunter coming up with Uncle Dusty this weekend to try her luck at this deer hunting deal.
She'll be shooting Dusty's new Savage 223. (If she sees a dang deer)
uuuurp, snort, weeze, scrape, scrape... rub, rub..

Nice to hear! Femails are growing exponentially in the shooting sports. As opposed to us crusty ole mails who are slowly diminishing.
I hope she shoots Ol' Forky Toes. now that would be funny!

That would be great, I'm not so sure he's around any more though. Haven't seen a track from that guy for quite a while.

I'm going to hunt tomorrow morning. Much cooler. Hopefully some bucks will be moving but this is still a semi-grocery shopping hunt so I will not be very picky yet. can you shoot buck yet or just the does?

How old were you when you were allowed to sit on your own?
I am not there yet, but starting to think about it. My oldest will be ready before long the youngest has a longer wait.
I was 12. I got dropped off and was told "sit here til I get back" I didn't see a deer while hunting until I was 14, which I promptly shot.

Man, maybe I am overprotective or whatever but I am not leaving my kids alone on their own at 12. Next thing ya know I would be trying to drag a cow or a moose out of the damn brush.

I sat alone the first time I went hunting...in NY, you couldn't hunt deer until you were 16 (archery at 14).
I sat in the stand for about...20 minutes and shot a doe at first light.
Wish it were always that easy!
I'd rather have a bad day hunting than a good day working!
