Colt's hunting season

Colt was able to kill a deer this year.  He shot it from the front porch!  A few weeks later while Troye was working Colt wanted to shoot another one.  He did and afterwards he had to teach me how to clean the deer since Troye wasn't here and Colt couldn't do it all!  A big learning experience!  Way to Go Colt!

Deer!

I forgot to post our pictures of the first deer we have harvested on the property! We have tons of deer but they can be difficult to see during the day! Troye set up a tree stand and was able to see several. He shot a very large doe. So excited to fill the freezer with deer meat! We are processing our own meat too!

A hunting we will go....

So deer season is here! Everyone is excited and ready to kill a deer but for some reason the deer have vanished! Smart on their part but not good for our freezer! Part of the problem is our neighbors on all sides! One decided to timber his land just two weeks before opening day and another decided to build a pier on their pond on opening weekend! Sure is hard to hunt when everyone around you is moving and making changes to the land! But we are still seeing evidence of deer movement, we just have to find the right time to take one! It will certainly be really exciting when we do kill one!
