Hunting with my neuphew (42) in central Pennsylvania for whitetails. My rule is old guy shoots big buck, young guy drags it out.
Well, 'the kid' shot a 10 point giant buck, great rack...too heavy to drag alone, and 2 miles back in heavy woods. shot at 2pm dragged till 7:30. back treatment was 750 ml vodka. I'll be hunting alone the next 3-4 days. ice moving in now. No sunday hunting llegal here so I'll relax.

Well......Depends on how old the nephew is to I guess. I mean sure, he may not be as old as dirt, but was he there when you came up with the name for it?
This is coming from a guy who has a granddaughter older then his youngest daughter. |

Had to explain that to my boy some years ago. Hunting smarter.
I offered to carry his rifle out though and keep him some lunch warm for when he made it out. |

Off for the next two after tonight. Couldn't cut a track on a fuzzy here in the fresh stuff so off to a SGL swathe a bit from here I like to haunt. Might even eyeball a deer while in there, drag isn't bad.
