This morning we had a buck into the field we were hunting and I told my Son to shoot if he wanted the buck. It was tiny and since he had got a deer already with his bow last week I thought he might want to pass. After I told him to shoot the deer came right to us and was only about 7 yards away. He had the gun pointed right at it and I plugged my ears waiting for the shot and kept waiting. He was trying to ask me if he could shoot and I couldn't hear him. The deer finally ran off. We hunted hard this weekend and saw lots of deer but didn't score. He was disappointed and I told him he should realize now how big of a an accomplishment it was getting the doe last week with a bow.

It's good that he made the decision on his own. Hopefully, he'll take a really nice buck later this season and he'll appreciate the fact that he made the right one. Congrats to him.

Congrats to him. i agree with Hux......one archery deer is enough for now...enjoy the experience to just hunt with family and friends...just my 02 cents...... ........turkey scout

This was a great lesson in decision making and it seems like the correct decision was made...

The "dissapointment" will be fleeting. There will be a LOT more opportunities down the road for both father and son. Good luck in the future.
