Here is the story of Bret's doe and 13 pt. buck harvested in his own words through his grandmother, T, who has a MySpace site and a good friend of mine from north Mississippi.
Opening morning was just a normal day I thought for deer hunting. I was with my Gramp Gramp on a Juneville hunt in TN . We were sitting in my stand, and I fell asleep, and my gramp gramp woke me up. We saw a 4pt. and there were two does with it. They walked off before I could get my gun up. Then we waited a little longer and another 4pt. and doe came up, and we could see about 6 does on the hillside but they were not coming our way. Then a little while later a doe came out about 50 yards and I shot it. We waited for it to die. While waiting several deers came out but, then this buck came out facing us and I saw it horns but did not know exactly how many it was. It almost started walking away but finally turned broad sided, and I shot it, and it fell right there where I shot it. When we got down to the buck, it had its sticker pts. in the ground I couldn't see it so we thought it was a typical 8pt. Then we lifted the head up. Then I could see it was a non typical 13pt. He weighed 113 lbs. field dressed. This was the best hunt yet for me cause I killed a doe and buck opening morning. Bret S.
My congrats to Bret in harvesting his 13 pt. buck and a doe in our great wild outdoors! Bret also shot a 8 pt. buck and doe last year on opening day! He loves to duck hunt more than anything. Looks like he is a natural born hunter and opening day is his lucky day! You go Bret!
Congratulations to Bret on a fine buck!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Bret. It’s always a thrill for me to see a young hunter smiling.

thanks Marian for posting this. It was his first buck and doe of this season, he killed a nice nice 8pt last yr opening day. Dont know what it is about opening day with him, lol. But I can say I am proud of him, he also duck hunts, and turkey hunts as well. MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!
ReplyDeleteThanks Adam and Othmar - it is a thrill and he's so fortunate to have started at such a young age.
ReplyDeleteT, you are so welcome. I'm so proud of him and can't believe he duck and turkey hunts...WOW, I'm impressed. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOURS AS WELL!
