.308 Win
Sitting here in my dbl ladder behind the house after spending the morning hunting with my sons on state land. It occurred to me that I have been hunting from this same stand for about 17yrs since my wife got it for me so I can sit with our oldest when he came of age.
As I’m sitting here I can remember clear as day his first deer, a spike with his bow 25 yards out to the left and I remember whispering to him which pin to use.
I can look out and see that heavy 8 my middle boy dropped with his 7/08 12 yrs ago and my youngest tagging his first deer a doe with his bow almost in the same spot as his oldest brothers first.
The time passing kinda hit me today after coming home with my sons to my exhausted wife who was watching 4 grandkids so my boys and I could have a rare day out together in the woods. Then climbing up here and looking at the white pine I used to trim level with the arm rail. That tree is now about 10-12 feet higher than that rail now.
It is incredible the memories this one seat in the woods can stir up… It reminds me to be thankful.
Anyway I’m supposed to be hunting best of luck out there!!
