1st Year Deer Hunting 2012
Our first year Deer Hunting.
..we got into this quite late in the season,like late october.
we did our hunters safty online,and them took a class at Duncans Outdoor Shop
in bay city,MI.
we both scored 100% on our test.
well next thing to do is find somewhere to hunt....
...that was easier said than done...
so now the Wife is looking up places on the interent,craigslist...ect.
we find one in Houghton Lake,40 acre's to hunt on....the bad....they want 1000 dollars to hunt on it.
so off we go...keep on looking...then she finds it.....
100 acre's in Onaway,MI. comes with a place to stay ,room for 11 people.
it's a hunting Lodge.
the price is right,well on to make a call to see what days are open,or if any.
turns out they have the weekend of thanksgiving open.
so we take thanksgiving and friday sat. & sunday.
well we head out after work on tuesday,we don't get packed and ready till around 10 pm.
we get there around 2:30 am thanksgiving morning....off to bed for a few hours of sleep.
we go out hunting in the morning....thursday was 65° and I think it was to hot for the Deer,cause we saw none.
we did see some turkey's.

well little did we know that would be the last of the Deer sightings for the Hunt.
we had more Turkey's come Through again.
We got to see some great looking sun sets,and sun rises!!!

Well in the End ...we kinda had fun.....
