This opening day was quite the freezer filler. We have hunted opening day together for many years. Most years we only have stories to share and great memories to tuck away but this year was different.
My son is now 22 and making his own way in this world and we don’t hunt together as much as we used to.
I got lucky with a buck opening morning and he got his that evening from the same stand I was in the morning.

Well done!

With these pictures, the number of shots I heard, and the number of vehicles on 20 it was a bad weekend to be a deer.

Congratulations! I'm the same age as him and my dad and I are going to go hunting for me to get my first buck this December in Kansas. Was he nervous before going out at all? Just trying to see if I'm the only one lol.

Awesome. Y’all will have a great time. Some big bucks up there.

He has been hunting with me since he was 9 but this was the first time we both got a deer on the same day.
As far as nerves before a hunt.... Heck, I am 51 and still get worked up before an upcoming hunt. Especially when I get a deer in the scope... Buck Fever is real..grin
Don’t worry about it. When the time comes just breathe, settle down and squeeze the trigger.
Most importantly, just enjoy the time with your dad and bring home some great memories to share with the rest of the family.

Good luck to y’all and I look forward to some good picts when you get back. up

I'm 49 and my son is 20. He has also been hunting with me since he was 9. Your story hits home.

I got a nice old 10 pt on Sun, but he couldn't go. We're headed back out this weekend for him. Hope he has the same luck!
