Tanner's First Deer

[Bubba_Bruiser]

Me and the boys got back in to hunting a little this year. We had one more chance to go before I came back to work. I alternate between the 2 older ones and it was Dylan's (oldest) turn to go, but he deferred. So Tanner and I set out for the short drive to a buddy's food plot. I figured the season was about to come to an end when nothing had showed by 5. But about 5:15 I caught some movement out of the corner of my eye and got Tanner ready. The deer stopped about 15 yards in front of us and I told Tanner to go. I was the guidance system and he was the trigger man. We squared up on him and he squeezed the trigger. The deer never took another step. We were hi-fiving and everything. I was so proud of him. But on the other side, I knew Dylan would be sad because he had choose to stay at home. But hopefully we will get him on 1 next year.
