Feet in the snow bring ears to the music
So, a pair of deer have found our backyard to be friendly ground.
First deer!
Ten-year-old Franklin Donegan got his first deer this season.
Saving a shot for the greater good
It is dusk on a glorious October evening. I am sitting quietly in my tree stand 15 feet above a well-worn deer trail. When I was younger, I would breathe the thinner air 25 and 30 feet up, but now, as I have ripened to the age of 61 years, I find it almost masochistic to climb up to even 15 feet.
Youth Hunters
Youth hunting started Saturday, November 2 and 3 was a great success for these great hunters.
