A good day

[jagrmystr]

I had an awesome day on sunday with my "hunt'n pardner"
He found his first shed (one that wasnt planted by dad)
We were about 100 yds apart when I heard him holler "found one!"
Then he acted like he was trying to beat someone else to it, even though there was nobody else around.(I think we have all done than one) The kid was sure excited, he's hooked....bad!

Then we went and shot some prarie dogs. I think he about wore out the barrel on that litte single shot.

Then we made a great find. I was glassing up in some rimrock for a buck and found this guy. What a pretty 6x6.

We finally did find this guy. (potential victim)

Plumb wore out. Me to. Sure was a good day.

All the money in the world won't buy a day like that, dad.
Any chance you miss is one you'll never get back.

Awesome can't wait until my kids are old enough to go out. Were you able to keep the elk skull? That thing would be very nice to have at home to remind you of the trip.

Good for you Chad, and good for you partner also.
Enjoy those kids, they don't stay young forever.

Thanks all. I think we have replayed every shot, every miss and every buck spotted at least a hundred times since sunday.
Its pretty cool when your young'n starts throwing down terms like bladed, killer beams, awesome fronts and starts discussing lengths of g2's and such.
Poor kid.....I think he has it far worse than I did at that age.
Its something that burns deep inside, when its lit, it will never go out.
