I took 2 youth this past wknd. The weather was very warm as you all know. Saturday evening was our 1st hunt, in my area the rain started just after getting to stand @ 430 and rained fairly solid til @ 5:30. I had my 9 yr old son with me and my wife had his 11 buddy with her. Within 10 minutes of the rain stopping everything @ us came to life. We ended up seeing quite a few bucks and several does by us. Out of the other blind they saw several does and 1 really nice buck. Long story short, my boy connected on a nice 8pt and his Lil buddy made a perfect shot on a mature doe! To say these kids were excited is an understatement!
Good luck to all the youth out there and those who are taking them! Be safe and have fun!
