The Nephew Bags His Buck

The 15-year-old nephew, Chris, bagged his first buck ever during muzzle loader season.

The 9-pointer looks to be the only one that will be taken from the farm. Regular rifle season hasn't been very productive. Of course, it isn't over yet.

Chris took his deer with one shot, which is the way I like to see them killed during a hunt. None of this shooting them and watching them run around in pain. Drop them where they stand - that's the way to get the job done.

The meat is already being eaten. Some of it has been made into jerky; some into hamburger. It doesn't go to waste around here.

Congratulations to the nephew!
