Oakley's First Hunt

When I put in for the hunts, I obviously was not expecting to be 6 months pregnant when they came around. When we found out that we were going to have a baby everyone said that I wouldn't be able to hunt, but this was my first time doing the muzzle loader so I was bound and determined to prove them wrong- and I did. We had been seeing these deer in the same place and time of day everyday, so one day Griff, Ryan Heath and I were looking and spotted them. I had the perfect shot so I pulled up and pulled the trigger. The deer jumped about 2 feet in the air, so I thought for sure he was down. When we went to look for him, there wasn't a trace of blood or anything. I like to blame it on Oakley, saying that she kicked right as I pulled the trigger. I redeemed myself when we saw him on the last morning of the hunt. I had an even better shot at him so I pulled my gun up, took a deep breath and pulled the trigger. He staggered about 4 feet then dropped. It was such an adrenaline rush. I was so excited. I want to thank my amazing husband for taking me everyday, my brother-in-law for not even pulling his gun up to take the shot and my little brother for being there for support! (Sorry about your clothes Heath and Ryan lol)






If you know me at all, you know I LOVE music!!
