We did some Hunting on the Martinez Ranch In Uvalde this passed weekend and my boy got to harvest his first small game animal. He stopped a cottontail under a feeder while tracking for blood and he made a nice 40 yd shot, knocking the cotton tail on his hind end. We had an awesome time, I was able to harvest a doe along with a hog, but seeing this smile was a lot more fulfilling. He's ready for our next hunt, I just need to get him a higher caliber rifle for some bigger game.



Nothin teaches you to be a better shot than tracking the ones you barely hit..

Be careful getting him a higher caliber rifle because then you will be the one shooting the rabbits and he will be the one knocking down all the big game.....of course, that's what every father wants to happen for his son or daughter.

Look at that big ole grin! You've ruined him dad! Now, hunting is all he is going to be thinking about, until girls come into the picture.

I appreciate all the positive comments, he had been asking all year when we were going to get to hunt. It's all he's talked about all week..
