I took a decent doe in September in a Reduction Zone.


Last weekend, I took Sydney (my youngest) out for her last Youth Weekend. She bow hunts so youth weekend has kind of lost the excitement since we just roll into regular bow season and she prefers hunting in late October now anyway ... but we went more for sentimental reasons. We saw some does both mornings. I made her pass on a doe that she could have easily killed on Sunday morning because it was getting late into the sit and she had to be at a team tennis match in a couple of hours. Dealing with a deer and making it to tennis at that point would have been tough. I don't think she was too happy with me that I had to reign her in when she was getting into kill mode ... LOL. We had fun though. You can see the look in her eyes in the walking out picture that she wasn't too happy that I didn't let her drop the string on that doe ... LOL. Great memories!
