The annual Doe Slam now includes Dennis’ son Reed. On opening day he got his first archery buck and now joins us for the doe slam (when not in school).

Ever notice the years go by faster the older we get? The upside is archery seasons seem to come faster. How about the fall foliage? Let’s get ready to Rumble.

Bam, right off the bat Reed connects on a nice doe. Smile says it all.

Great to watch Dennis and Reed interact while bow hunting and it brings back memories of doing it with my son 30+ years ago. “Pass it on”.

You may remember Dennis manages a farm for a guy who generously allows us to help manage the deer herd by shooting does early season. Last year Dennis built a walk in cooler which is a game changer for keeping deer cool. Dennis processes most of the deer and gives a few away to friends.

Dennis has to keep up with his taxidermist customers so mid day we stay busy too. Dennis owns 2 acres and put in a small food plot. There is a good amount of ag around Dennis and this buck showed up on camera. Dennis is stoked.

We just finish loading up the deer and Dennis gets a call from his wife that Reed cut his finger in shop class.

Dennis’ wife was at work so he gets to be school Dad to pick up Reed to get stitches. A busy morning ratchets up big time.

Here’s a pic of Reeds pinky before stitches.

Reed is ok and Dennis reminds him that he had stitches around 10 times growing up.

Meanwhile back at the home front we got some deer to take care of. We get to work and still make the pm hunt.

Great update on the doe harvest. Venison burger, venison stakes, venison backstraps, venison etc, etc. Yum! I remember back in the day 1960s-1970s." that if you killed a doe, you killed next years buck." Wonder what even happened to that theory?

24-Oct-22
Good times, Charlie! That cooler is surely a game changer.

Packing for whitetail tour.
Well another year has come and gone. Today I’m packing for my annual whitetail tour of the Midwest. First stop will be next week with Dennis Razza as we kick things off with the “annual doe slam”. I’ll start the 2023 version next week. This is our 9 year.
