Erik's next deer



Yes, the boy got another deer this year. Doesn't quite seem fair that he was only in the stand about 20 minutes and here she came! Meghan went with him, they got up at 4:00am! Ate breakfast and were in the stand by 6:00. Just about 6:30 (daylight) he heard a noise off to his left. He told Meghan to be still and she tracked the deer till he had a good kill shot. She jumped and ran a few feet then doubled back to die right in front of the tree stand!

He spent the rest of the weekend processing her. She looks to have been a doe about 3 years old. We ate venison steaks on Saturday night and venison chili yesterday. The rest is in the freezer. Woo Hoo!
