'Hope all the kiddos have a lot of fun this weekend! I got an email from TPWD telling MLD Harvest option participants that a youth can use an MLD buck tag this weekend. We've got 4 young'uns coming with a parent/guardian through the TWA program to start the doe (and turkey...and pig) blood flowing.

That’s great that you open your gates to youth hunters through TWA. I know you have done it before. Very very good. TWA has great hunting programs available to youth and novice hunters but they cant do without willing landowners.

Creek is very generous opening up his resources to others.
Good luck and hope they have a good time!
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Gonna try to get my little guy on his first deer. Been practicing a lot last bit he has put a hurting on my stash of 22 lr in practice as well as 223 and the 30-30 we will take afield. Hope it pays off. I’ve been nervous for days already.
Good luck and good shooting to any afield!

TWA has great hunting programs available to youth and novice hunters but they cant do without willing landowners. I have done the same, mostly friends of the grandkids, friends and coworkers, so far they have taken one deer, a spike.

Thanks very much all. I think it's the least I can do, with all I have been given. 8 does down and retrieved, plus 2 turkeys. A few lessons learned and the kids seem to be happy. The parents are tired but happy. 3 sets going out for turkey this morning. The pigs aren't cooperating.

4 boys left front were the hunters. 8 WT doe and 5 turkeys as the final. A great time and the volunteers were top-notch. 'Twas a little warm!

that's outstanding. both of my sons hunted youth weekend behind the house and we collected a nice buck. tried to get a doe too but it was pretty warm in the afternoons and deer didn't move well. saturday morning was good when we got the buck but sunday morning was very foggy. took a pretty good while before we could see well. there were deer there but they'd started to thin out by time our visibility had improved.
