I hope the hell I can do this 50 years from now. Watch the video too, he's looking pretty good for his age.

I'm hoping they have to dart me out of my treestand.

It may be mid-July, I may be struggling to chamber a pack of Rolaids in my 30-06, but I want to be up there.

Yea, but when you're 104, you're allowed to use a .270.

Truly inspirational!

A couple years ago I witnessed a a guy in his 80's or 90's mooching through the deer woods with a walker, with his rifle clamped across the handlebars.

I'm half his age and my body is ready to cash it in!
he was hunt on ward burtons property. he has some prime hunting land. ward is a great guy ,i got to know him during the fight to stop the shenandoah fish kills from 2004 -2010. he did a lot of fighting to get our sewage treatment plants upgraded with better filtration systems.

i have a very close friend that missed his first season of deer hunting this year at 88 yrs old.he says he started hunting at 18. i surely hope i can hunt 70yrs.

If you make it to 104, I'll put in a good word for you with the big guy. I'm sure he and I will be acquainted well before that. *grins*

Inspirational to say the least. I plan on trying to out do him in a few years! God willing....

I have no excuses now, after watching him on video, to complain about sore joints, too tired, too hot, too cold, etc.

At 104 years of age who are we to question his wisdom of using a .270?? Thanks for posting.

Cool story! I wonder if maybe he's using a 6x45? Just sayin.

Nice bucks. I'm 56 and his grandkids are probably older than me. I hope I'm still going strong 10 years from now, much less 50.

I need to show this to my Dad. He's 95 and still hunting. Maybe this will keep him going a few years longer. He still rides his 30 year old four wheeler and climbs into our 10-12 foot tower stands.

Good for him. I wish your Dad all the best.

My Dad is a young 91, still commercial fishes (runs trot lines- traps- and hoop nets by hand), hunts, plants a 3 acre garden, and does whatever he wants to. Nobody around here old enough to tell him he cant do something.
This is a good one.

92 year old WW2 vet gets "lost" while deer hunting by himself. This is another tough old dude. This happened last Saturday night. Actually, he wasn't lost, it just got too dark for him to find his way out. Again, I hope I can do this 35 years from now.

Watch the video, he reminds me of my father.
