Well, Monday was our first day of gun season, I was not sure if I could do it or not, but I was gonna stay at the cabin anyway.
So we got up at 4:30am on Monday and started the coffee..... One of my newer hunters Wayne (Been hunting now for three years) Says...... Are you gonna go AL? I said yea, I am gonna try it..... That air mattress seemed to do my back some good.
He says....... WELL DONT GO SHOOTING A DOE AT 8 Oclock and start the 4 wheeler and bother my hunting this year! (Keep in mind this is my land) :eyebrownod:
So I calmly say..... What would you have me do...... I have shot a LOT of deer over the years and we like eating does.... :shrug:
He says this year.....at least on the first day..... dont shoot anything but a buck....OK?
So I said OK.... :eyebrownod:
I woulda normally passed this one up.......but Wayne wanted me to shoot one so......Around 8A.M. ..............
I showed him this one and said........

LoginWayne! Just what do ya want me to shoot tomorrow on my own farm?! This game is FUN!!!!!!! :biggrin:
He did not think it was as funny as I did......... :nono: :alscalls: :alscalls: :alscalls: :alscalls:
Thank god he did not get one......as I needed him for the work........ :laf: :laf: :laf:
He moped and moaned about how he had never killed a buck and probably wouldnt see one all week....... :pout:
So I asked him........ What did you learn today?? After a few choice words for me...... :eyebrownod: :laf: :laf:
He said.... What do ya mean? I said what did ya see today? He said ......One doe.
I said what else? He said nothing....... I said NOTHING!!!! I saw trees, and birds, and squirrels,....... Tracks and scrapes and rubs....... I saw where the deer were eating white oaks and persimmons.....and much more!!!!!!!
So after a long talk about what he really saw we decided where he should go next....
He learned a lot...... and it payed off for him..... :eyebrow:
The rest of the week was much more enjoyable........For both of us. :yoyo: :laf: I had a great time and did not hunt anymore after Monday.....
