Hunt Story
After weeks of hunting and only seeing doe after doe, it was one of my last hunts I’d be able to have with my dad before heading back to college. We saw two deer approaching. We just knew it would be another set of doe just as all the other hunts had been. Before we knew it a spike appeared. Great. Not something worth shooting, in my opinion. Then my 7-point showed up and my dad whispered “That’s him!” I was so eager to put my scope on him and get ready. God trailed him up towards the stand and I followed with my scope as slow as possible. Eventually, I lined up the perfect shot and held the gun tight. Bang! A perfect shot to a perfect first deer!
