I also thought I'd share baby buckee's first buck. Sorry for the poor quality but you got to remember back when this big boy was shot there wasn't such thing as digital---I think it was a 110 camera. Anyway--buckee can share the story later grin.gifgrin.gif:

Re: How old were you?

I was 30 years old. I had been deer hunting for 10 years, and had found every concievable way to screw up at the crucial moment. I learned deer hunting the hard way, trial and error, on my own. Not the easiest way to learn something, but you definately remember what you learn.

This is my first deer. DON'T LAUGH!!!...lol I shot it at the very last minute, on the last day of my 10th season. A doe came by with 2 skippers, and the second skipper gave me the shot. I know it is small, but I couldn't have been more proud, and I can still feel all those feeling come rushing back when I think of my first deer.

Re: How old were you?

I was 22 when I got my very first deer. It was my second year deer hunting. I had never hunted a day in my life until my in-laws invited me to go. The deer I took was a nice 6 pointer, took him on a Friday of the first week right as the last bit of shooting light was fading. The only thing I hate about that first deer was I didn't get any pictures. But I have the rack on the wall!

I think I was 15...it was in self defense also...fired off 5 shots at some deer about 100 yds away...went to look and a young doe came at me...let her have it at about 3 steps away from me...fell at my feet. Didn't hunt for about another 3 years due to the scared s***less feeling. No pic...

Shot this doe last year. I was 17 at the time. As you can see i used my favorite rifle, the good ole M1 carbine about 30 yards away.

14 years old, second year hunting, 7 pts., 14" spread, 170 lbs.dressed, 12 guage Rem. 870 Wingmaster with Winchester slugs, 25 yards, 8:45 a.m., 11/13/83.

No pictures handy to upload, besides I was geeky looking back then. wink.gif

Why is that men can remember every deer down to the last detail, but have a hard time remembering birthdays, anniversaries, and Valentine's Day? grin.gif
