Son's weekend

[JEL]

I am glad someone in our family is filling the freezer. This son of mine loves to hunt. The deer was his first kill without me with him(Cat/Griz game). He managed the gutting, hanging and skinning pretty darn well. The elk he got yesterday. Some fine eats hanging in the garage.

Great to see a young man hunting. He must of had a pretty good teacher.

Well done! I'm looking forward to the day my two boys do it themselves from start to finish. Means I taught them well.

It's kind of a bittersweet feeling to know that they can do it on their own. I suppose that we should be happy that we have taught them well. My oldest son has hunted on his own for whitetails the last two years he still makes some mistakes but his love and passion for hunting makes my heart happy, he is my best hunting pardner. My middle son still hunts with me, between the two of them I don't shoot as many deer as I used to. They can also be a big help as my oldest loves the prossesing part as much as the hunt and helps skin and cut up the deer, just tonight his knife slipped and he stabbed himself in the leg and had to go to the hospital and he said why does this always happen to me, i told him he needed to keep a sharper knife. All in all we as parents have a lot to be proud of. The Bible says "train up a child in the way they should go and when they are old they will not depart from it".
