In October, Zane went hunting for his deer--first year he was able to have his own tag. He has been going hunting with Dad for many years, though.
And he gets to carry the gun! :D Callum also went with them.
Callum keeps up with them, although Rusty does end up carrying his pack by the end of the day.
I'm not sure how Zane's supposed to see a deer with his eyes closed! I guess that's why Callum went along--to be the look out!
When they were deer hunting, they saw lots, and lots of elk. And then last weekend, when they were elk hunting, they say lots of deer, but no elk!
Zane's deer--it's a buck-fawn. He aimed for the heart & shot him 1 time. When they got to the deer--Rusty saw that indeed Zane had shot it through the heart!
He's quite the marksman! Awesome job!
This is Rusty, Callum & Zane hunting for Zane's cow elk--on Rusty's birthday.
They were in snow, and hiked & hiked & hiked, but did not see even 1 elk.
It sure is beautiful country, though.
Callum's turn to rest. I do have to say that all 3 of them were quite tired by the time they got home that night. and the boys had a good night's rest!
Zane has the whole month of November to get his elk--so hopefully he will get one this Saturday!
Good luck, Zane!
