Pretty Awesome First 13 Months of Hunting!

Recommended Posts

Only 11 years and 1 month old and this fine young man has had quite the hunting success. He ate tag soup this year on turkey and javelina (hoping for a little redemption this coming spring), but the rest has been pretty impressive. Big thanks to a lot of individuals on here who have helped (Big Browns, Cody Heuett, lancetkenyon, CouesPursuit, PRDATR, Shane Koury, TRKHNTR, twowindy, and many more.)

That puts my last 13 months to shame. Pretty awesome. Congrats.

 

I was getting ready to agree wholeheartedly to this....

 

That puts my entire hunting life to shame.

 

until I read this. DEFINITELY! I'm jealous of that boy! Congrats on a great run so far!

Uhhhhhhhhh there is a bit of jealousy anger because he had such a better hunting career than I and way younger then I was able. At the same time i'm extremely excited for him! But hey I want my kids to have the same experience at that age as well congrats! :). What a year!

I always wanted to hunt when I was a kid. But my dad, who was raised in Idaho and was really into hunting and fishing in his youth, had lost the passion and interest. I never really got the chance to hunt till I was in my 20's and started to get invited by a good friend and his family. I was into my thirties before I could start to devote much time, energy, and resources to it. Now 38, I've spent a good deal of time and resources over the past several years to make up for lost time and learn what I could,

 

1. Because I love it!

2. Because I want to be able to to pass it along to my kids, and I don't want them to miss out like I did.

 

Don't get me wrong, I have a great dad. It just wasn't his thing anymore. But my hope is that by the time my kids are my age, and ready to raise the next generation of outdoorsmen/women, they won't be playing catch up like me. I think we are off to a good start.

 

Thanks again to all in here who have helped to bring me along the learning curve over these past several years. I still have a ton to learn compared to most of you, but I'm doing my best to pass it along and pay it forward.
