Please Don't Look - if You Have a Weak Stomach....

So.......this is a view from the blind I was hunting from..... And then.....this is the doe I shot! MY FIRST DEER!!! I can NOT even begin to explain the emotions to you.....But I can promise you....after I shot it - if there had been a video camera on me in my stand I can PROMISE you that I DEFINIETLY would have made America's Funniest Home Videos!!!! I called Cory on his cell phone (he was hunting in a different area) and said "oh my god, Cory! I just shot one!!!" After I heard the excitement in his voice and his congratulating me He said he started THROWING stuff out of his stand to hurry up and get back to me!!!

And let me just ADD to this story....When Cory and I got out of the truck to start hunting that morning.....it was 15 degrees! Yes 15.....I would say it felt like MINUS 180 degrees!!!!


Sorry about the blood - Brandy edited most of it out of the pic for me! Me and my first deer! :) Coby was even happy for me!

  1. I'm so very proud of you too! Even though I can't support eating the deer. I think it's awesome you were able to sit there and keep quiet long enough to shoot one!

  2. That's awesome. My husband, yes the same guy who shot his jeep the weekend before, got his first deer this Saturday, too.

    It's still in our garage. He's taking it over to a friend's house to learn how to process the thing tonight.

    Congrats! Very exciting!

  4. Oh my - well congrats LOL - I dated a pretty serious hunter back in college, and went out on the "trails" with him...so I know how hard it is to get one.
