Darren's 1st Deer

PawPaw and Darren with Darren's first deer.

The last weekend of deer season our family, Aunt Tracie, Uncle Jody, and JC, met Mimi and PawPaw at the deer lease for one last hurrah. The first evening hunt, Darren used a 223 to get his first deer. It was very exciting for everyone. The only help PawPaw gave was to put his hand behind the gun to absorb most of the recoil, Darren did the rest on his own.

The story:

"Darren, do you have the X on the head or neck?"

"Yes PawPaw."

"OK. Well whenever you get ready, you can squeeze the trig..."

BOOM! and there was two very happy boys and one dead deer.

There is a large hill at the Deer lease, and all the boys were determined to climb to the top of it. It's a guy thing I guess. Anyway, mission accomplished. The view was worth it.
