Team Realtree Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 My son Jack joined the forums tonight and it's special to me. Many of you old timers have listened to my stories about Jack and because of those, watched him grow up over the years. Jack is now a fine 14 year old young man that is as dedicated to hunting and the outdoors as anyone I know. He has joined me in stands since he was 4 years old, taken several nice whitetails (including his first mountable buck last year (a 9 point GA trophy). This year, Jack's a first time bowhunter and doing very well shooting as we work on getting him ready to hit the woods soon. He's is now a freshman in High School and very active in football, baseball and academic activities. The "au" in his "aujack" username stands for Auburn University (which I'm a proud alumni). Jack will no doubt be a fine addition to the community here in the forums and I look forward to having him as a friend to all of you. Obviously, his school and sports participation will limit his time in here, but his love of hunting and gift of gab will probably make these boards one of his favorite online destinations. Justlet me know if you see him in here late on weekday nights (and not in bed). Thanks, S PS. It's hard to believe it's been 6 years, but here is the story we ran on the site when Jack took his first deer at 8 years old: http://www.realtree.com/community/photoEssay.php?ID=15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck2 Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 You can be rightfully proud of this young man, Scott. Au may well stand for Auburn, but it's also the chemical symbol for pure gold; very fitting, I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
