My first deer ever, I couldnt have been happier or more excited!! It was a long shot, one I never thought I could actually make. Thank goodness I have a husband that has taught me well, and has the patience to deal with me while hunting. Needless to say, I am now hooked and cant wait till hunting season starts again!!

FINALLY,,,,,,,,,,,,we brought one of the ladies to the forefront. AND another pretty one to boot. VERY happy to see the ladies take up guns and hunting. YOU and young people ARE the future of the sport we love and live. Congratulations to BOTH you and your husband. Keep up hunting together. It makes problems take a back seat. BTW. Here's this year's picture of MY wife. We have been deer hunting together for the last 10 years.

December 1975, NW Ct. My dad and his friends had a deer camp and I shot the 8 pointer in the middle with a JC Higgins bolt action 12ga goose gun. 2 3/4" Remington slugger. It was a week before my 15th birthday. I thought at the time that this deer hunting stuff was easy. Boy was I wrong.
