I. Would. Not. Dare. Make. This.Up.
Hubbs has been in hot pursuit of a ten point buck. Blind built. He’s spent days in it. Hubbs did Not grow up in a hunting family. Which is why he got a scope bite a month ago. At 64. That’s ok. So I’m driving down the driveway about 1/2 mile. There’s an old barn at the end where we store round bales. Out walks the buck with a mouthful of hay, a doe following. They disappear. I call Hubbs and say I saw your buck it was eating hay in the road barn. Swearing about sitting in an uncomfortable blind in the rain ensues. Personally I’m rooting for the buck if for no other reason I don’t want to gut the thing. I grew up in a hunting culture but critters got shot away from the house.

That’s funny. I can understand your husband wanting the rack on that buck, there’s proof that he is a hunter. Personally I’d prefer the doe. Buck meat can get raunchy. Edible, made into sausage. I used to buy a whole beef brisket and grind up with the buck meat. I made sausage, stuffed it and smoked it. Fabulous.

I hope he gets the buck. He should have the hide tanned and hang it on the wall. I like the bare skull and antler mount better than the glass eyed taxidermist mount. Yes, he should have his proof that he is a hunter.

I don’t sit and wait, I’m coming for you when I’m hunting whatever. I don’t shoot hundreds of rounds sighting in a rifle, no scopes, no camo, no baiting, I’m tracking your arse down and will find you no matter the weather, terrain, or time of day. You will know when the bullet hits the bone.
I would expect nothing less than this from you.

Not sure if I'm going to survive this new job of hubby's. With the commute, he's up and out of the house by 5:20am. His drunken elephant routine wakes me up as well. So I have an hour of no sleep before it's time to wake the kids. No point in waking them up too early, school won't take them till 7:05am.

My right handed granddaughter also shoots left handed as she was born with a condition that her right hand doesn’t grow. But she’s a crack shot. Daddy’s girl!

4:22 and still awake. Still can’t sleep because of my hand. The ligaments are all strained and my wrist is throbbing along with the debacle of Boone swatting and dislocating my thumb. How long does it take for these things to heal? I’m used to bone breaks and the pain from that eases up as soon as it’s stabilized This is hurting like a booger all the time, all day and night and apparently I have been clenching my jaw because of it, adding a headache to the mess. 😬.

Does she use a left handed bolt action?
Idk what her favorite is. She has access to all her dad’s guns and he has quite a collection, including my drilling I inherited from my grandfather that was made by German gunsmith as a gift. It’s amazing. 7mm mauser rifle with 16ga side x side underneath, silver engraved breech and dropplate and walnut burl stock. A gun and ammo magazine did an article on it. The turd won’t give it back! 😂
