Well, I have no clue where to even put this. I was going to put it in sports but thought it might be a educational kind of thing. Well, here's my hunting season so far and some shed hunting.
Two Shed antlers I found 2 days ago hunting.

2011 Shotgun Season Buck Shot yesterday! My friend spelled Mission...Misson (fail)
Time to make up a story, oh I mean tell it. The wind was blowing from every direction 100MPH I tell you, heard a Deer coming from 400 yards away and shot him in his tracks at 250 yards
Naw, time for the real story. It was about 12:30pm and our group was getting tired. Well, we didn't get to the spot where we were supposed to be and a Buck I saw last night (160s class) ran right infront of us 60 yards and I took 3 shots missed. This Buck comes over the hill and I heard 2 shots and it comes right to me, he's limping.
Well, I take one shot at him he turns around runs right to my Dad who takes a shot. We all missed besides another kid in my group. We blood trail him 200+ yards and everyone gives up but me. I sit down and I see movement 100 yards of and start to sneak, there he was.
EDIT: The blood trail went onto another guys property and nobody would call him but me.
He started limping my way at about 50 yards and I took a shot and hit him right in the heart. He went down FAST. The other kid shot him in a non-vital place and he would have lived if I didn't shoot him. I ended up gutting him, tagging him, and keeping him. We played out the rest of the day and this was the biggest Buck taken other than the Buck from yesterday. Good luck to everyone else who still has a tag!
Thanks to God I had a great hunt!
EDIT:! Forgot to add this, we had some kids with high powers and shotguns trying to hunt our place. They sure used a lot of Sirs when they were talking with my Dad. Thought the entire hunting group was going to shoot their truck a few 100 times. They ended up yelling and messin' the hunt up but still got that Buck. If you look and see the hole in his shoulder, the slug got stuck there and I cut it out. I shot him good on the other side.

2011 Youth Season Buck Sept 2011
After a long day of school and running hard at Cross Country this was great! My Dad's combine broke down so we headed out at 6:30pm and went to the new property we just bought! (120 acres 10 timber and 2 ponds). So, this property over the years has been poached, illegaly hunted, and unethicaly hunted. It hasn't been hunted since Feb (Yeah, poached). So, we didn't think there would be any Bucks or squat but we just thought what the hay. We get out and see this Doe at 20ft away. My Dad looked at me and said "It's your tag" I look at the Doe aim and then something just came over me not to shoot. So, the Doe then runs about 25 yards out stops then looks for 3mins and then snorts away. I then relize, oh snap there were Deer over the hill! 15 Deer come and ran, my Dad then asked me "is it over?" I said "No way" I then go sit on a dirt hill (it's about 10ft off the ground) at 6:41pm and wait. Then at 6:47pm two Bucks come out of the corn 10 yards behind me! I'm thinking "Oh crap they saw me!" I then look and relize they have no clue I'm there! They then start to run right to me! WITHIN 20FT, 15FT, 10FT! then the Buck stops at 7 feet to look at a Doe and I then shot him right in the heart! He goes down then tries to get back up and BOOM second shot right through the heart and spine. The funny thing is, I told my Dad we should pray together before the hunt and we did and I think that's why this Deer came out infront of me. Here are some pictures! Not the Buck I was hoping for but still a good Buck.

First Bow Deer Oct. 2011
God was a great help in this hunt
Well, I went out about 6:02pm I was really late because I had school back up on me a little because I had surgery. I'm pretty much caught up now, but on to the story. I went out and I was going to sit in my blind when a Doe runs 10 yards infront of me I stop dead in my tracks, another Doe runs and I watch them and don't notice a Buck come out 20-30 yards away until 3mins later. He is just standing there looking at me. I took my chances and grunted at him and he got PISSED. He looked at me held his head high and started walking down wind to me. I take my Bow raise it a little and freeze. He then doesn't relize I'm standing right there. He messes around at 40 yards and starts walking a fence line. Comes closer and closer, 30 yards, 25, 20, I shoot him in his tracks at 20 yards. The arrow bounces and I think "Oh, I hit the ground! Bugger!" I did, it hit the ground bounced into his leg and bounced off his leg into his vitals. I can't stop laughing about it! Weird thing is I sent a text to my Dad to pray and he said he did. The Deer runs 100 yards over a tarace and I didn't go look for him there. I walked up and could have shot a Doe at 5 yards but passed her up. I know I should save the arrow, so I walk back to where I shot the Buck and he comes out of the corn right by the tarace at 5 yards! He runs about 50 and that was the last time I saw him. He was laying right where I saw him last.

I'm looking to be a DNR officer or some type of game warden here in the next few years.
