All my firsts where with my dad. I remember my first deer..back then big game wasnt until 16--shotgun only area. We were in stand togeyher he had built, shot a spike buck within an hr or so of sunlight. Never a man to share much feelings but i remember he was just so proud of me. Hes still around and i cherish ever yr i get to hunt with him...squirrels, ducks and deer.
