First Deer Down!
My buddy Dave finally came through. After a few years of hunting, and a few close encounters, he scored on this nice six pointer last Thursday.
This is Dave’s first deer EVER! He started shooting with us a few years back, and after a few hunts with us, and then getting the chance to hunt some property with another friend, he officially scored.
I’m telling you, last Thursday was the day to be in the woods. Jeff shot his buck that morning, Dave shot his buck that morning, and Dave’s buddy-that he was hunting with-shot an 8 point that morning as well. And where was I? At a work conference. Remember what I said about bad luck yesterday? There’s more proof (as if you needed it).
It has been one heck of a week for shooting bucks. Matthew shot his, Uncle Jim shot his, Jeff shot his, Dave shot his, Dave’s buddy shot two (both of which I will have pics soon. Someone forgot to save them today), and Justin, the sister’s boyfriend, shot his last night.
It was been one heck of a week around here. And congrats to Dave on his first deer. The first one is always the hardest, so it should be smooth sailing from here on out.

Sounds like an awful lot of deer ending up in the freezer over there. Congratulations.
That’s a lot of deer. Congratulations to them all.
Hopefully you will have some luck this weekend.
Our hunting buddy shot a little 8 pointer last week too – its going in my freezer tomorrow! Hubby would have shot one or two, but I’ve got an “if it wasn’t for bad luck” story for Friday all about that…
Congratulations Dave! Here’s hoping that this is the first of many.
Call him “Dave” all you want but we all think it’s hella cool to have a picture of Conan O’Brien’s first deer!
Congrats Conan!
Congrats to Dave and the rest of the crew and good luck to you Arthur!
Nice work, Dave! Keep the passion and I hope to see you continue your success.
