Default question about youth entries

If my sons want to enter deer in the contest do they need to join the NEFGA or can they be entered under my membership?

Good question.

If they get a deer as big as yours, they can enter it under my membership.

I'll let Tris tell the story of his first buck. We had big fun.

dc.








In the morning we had a few good sneaks. In one group we saw a deer with a broken tine and passed it up. We went back out at about 2:00 and looked over some deer but we passed them up. We took off to our pivot and got pinned down by a bunch of deer with this buck in it for about 45 minutes. There was a bigger buck in the bunch we believe but he took off, so we snuck on this bunch that took us about a mile from where we started. We ended up in our stack yard which is about 350 yards from where the deer stopped. This buck started our way and hopped the fence that was between us. He was about 50 yards down the fence from us but he was hidden behind a little hill. I started to crawl forward until I could see him. When I took a look he was staring right at me. I thought he was going to bust on me. He hopped back over the fence and started to move away. Meanwhile I was moving up to the fence to get a shot at him when he stopped. At about 300 yards he stopped and stood broad side to me. I knew I had to take the shot. So I gently squeezed the trigger and dropped him where he stood. One second he was there the next second gone. At first I thought I had missed when I didnt see a deer there and none of the does were moving at all. Dad and I walked over and found him while my brother went back for the pick-up. He hadn't moved.

T.C.

Nice Mulies. But he really should try to hold back the excitement. Smile.

This is an entry for a friends daughter. My buddy calls me sunday morning to come help him a drag a buck out of the woods. He tells me his fourteen year old daughter, Lindsay just shot a buck and it's bigger than his wall hanger. Well how big is it? A twelve pointer, he says. Now this I have to see. It seems that they decide to go out about mid morning on their own land. They took a seat against a tree about midway down a hill, after a short wait and seeing a few other deer wandering around, this buck walks to within twenty yards. Brian is whispering to Lindsay to take the shot, but lindsay is having a problem with the safety. About this time the buck spots them and takes off. After a short run to about fifty yards he turns broadside. With the safety problem solved, one shot and he was down.With the wild times of opening weekend, this buck must have been chased out of it's usual haunts as Brian had not seen it before. [/IMG]

Could someone make the pics a little bigger? Thanks.

Default Wow!!

Hey now!! Those are some nice bucks!!!

Nice job on both of those! I can't decide which one of those two deer I'd rather seen in my sights!! Those are both just about once in a lifetime deer.
(For me anyway...)

Congrats and thanks for the entries!! Let's see some more!

Congratulations Tris and Lindsay! It is great to see some youth out getting involved. A very large mulie, and a true 6x6 typical whitetail. Those are both great deer!
