Yo Harold. I am thinking that your butcher is growing real fond of your family. haha. Nice pictures, but even better to hear how you do it as a family. Does your daughter hunt, or just "run" them down ?
Was that a coffee maker I saw in that stand/blind ????

Always the JOKER huh Tom! We all butcher our own as we are poor and cant afford the high priced butchers! LOL My daughter hunts just not deer yet. Hopefully next year I can convince her to try deer hunting at least she goes and watches the rest of us hunt deer! And no you did not see a coffee maker in the blind, just a cookstove and a coffee cup! We pack our coffee in with us in thermos's. LOL

Looks like you guys really did it up right. That's gonna be enough meat to get you through the winter.
I guess your Dad can see good enough to get himself a deer. And tell your Mom and Dad hello from Erin and I.
For the rest of you guys this is the same place we went last spring for Prairie Dogs.

Great hunt by all! It looks like your buck damaged that antler at some point in his life, fighting other bucks. Or it may have been the result of a near miss. I'ne seen quite a few deformed antlers, over the years, and most of them were the result of accidents of some sort.
Darn Harold, you are the spittin' image of your Dad! Glad you can get out and enjoy hunting with him, and your Mom. That includes the whole family of course. Those blinds are the "cat's meow"!!!

Here are two more bucks that were shot out on the same ranch. My father and i are very poor at judging the size of bucks. We both passed on bigger bucks than we ended up shooting. B  oth deer had major ground shrinkage. But we both had the best deer hunting we have ever had in our lives |

Nice heard of deer you got in your garage! Almost makes me wish I was still in S. D. but then I remember that 20 below blowing snow and remember why I moved to Ga.
They say the family that preys together stays together, looks like you got it going right.

I can't hunt for deer because I can't get down to the Carolinas where a friend of mine has a freezer - I don't; have never been able to convince Her Imperial Majesty of the need for a big one that would allow me to, and where I am you can only use a shotgun, muzzleloader or a bow, and the deer here are so stunted it's not worth the effort. But if I could hunt them, I'd have been happy with any of the bucks your family took, Got Coffee.
