Year of firsts

This is the year of firsts.
The first year my son plays football.
The first year he gets to hunt with me, and not just go along to watch.
He just completed his hunter safty, and this Friday Dove season opens. I know he is excited. more reasons then one. his first football game is Thursday. So the last few days we throw the football, then shoot clay. As long as we don't shoot the football were good.
I have to admit that this is the first Dove season that I have been excited about, since I was a kid. Even my wife noticed, but she didn't have to ask why. She knows that I have a new playmate, and even better friend. This is the year of our first Father Son Dove hunt. Looking forward to many more.

Have fun. Just make sure to give him a 12 or 20 guage. .410's don t go far enough for dove. I'm going dove hunting too. I got 700 shells to lay waste.

Yhea I agree about the .410

He has a Remington 870 20 guage. I'll be using my Winchester 1300 12 guage. We will have a good time even if we don't bag anything. We always do when we spend time together. Good luck on your hunt Bigandrich44!
