After having lunch at our good friends today for Thanksgiving I surprised little man and took him to my buddies place in Lometa to try to get his first deer. We get there around 330 and I corn all around the feeder so the deer will stick around then we climb in the stand. About 430 feeder goes off and a group of 4 doe come in. I get little man set up and start filming. I look over and he is shaking like crazy. I told him just take some deep breathes through your nose and out your mouth and settle down. After about a minute he says he is ready and he settles in and take the shot. I knew instantly it was a miss as he shot right over her. I told him lets wait a few minutes and then go look for blood. We looked for blood and for the doe but found no signs of her being hit so we went back to the stand. He was bummed but I told him we don't quit and we don't give up failure is temporary it pepped him up. About 15 minutes later here comes some hogs he gets all kinds of excited and he makes a great shot, the hog ran about 40 yards and pilled up. We get out go find the hog and recover it. At this point I figured the hunt was over as it was starting to get dark and there was only about 15 min of shooting light left so we drove to another feeder and there were a couple doe there and we pick the biggest one and he double lungs her with a perfect shot at about 80 yards. She pilled up about 20 yards from where she was shot. All in all I think this is the best Thanksgiving ive ever had. Couldn't be more proud or excited for little man and cant wait to spend many more years hunting with him.

This is the best part of hunting.

That is awesome. Great story. Y'all can start killing the heck out of pigs together.
