Sons First Dove

Well, took the boys out with the back just shooting pain all over the lower part of my back, hardly could walk. But the boys wanted to go, so we went to the youth dove hunt down here by Evansville. We had 2 doves come in from the backside, and came out in front of us, and my youngest, Holden shot the first dove, and droped it, Hunter, his older brother shot and droped the other dove. Holden was SO excited that he shot his first dove, he forgot to eject the empty shell out. His smile, if you guys could have seen it, was from ear to ear. He said, I shot my first dove, and I shot it with my favorite hunting buddies. Dad and Hunter, well that just made my heart melt. My pain seem to be gone, I mean no pain at all. I need some more of that stuff. But he ran out and got his, and Hunter ran and got his, they were both really happy. It was a long time waiting for me to have the day when I can get both of my boys out to hunt with, it was kids only hunt, but that was worth a limit of ducks and geese any time, just seeing my 2 boys out hunting with me, and the fun they had.
Thanks to the Twin Bridges Waterfowl USA chapter for the hunt. FIRST CLASS in my books. They are having a banquet next Sat.
Very proud day for daddy.
