Derek got up and left the house before dawn Saturday morning...
He bow hunts and deer season has begun. It was a good first day hunt for him!
He shot this ten point buck!
He drove the small car...didn't expect to get one, I guess!? :) So when he called to say he got this guy, we ended up driving out to get him and bring him home in the Durango. (Lined with painters plastic...and I made Derek switch me cars. Ha.) That was fun though, since Cooper got in on more of the 'action' that way. He got to watch us wrestle it into the car... this guy was HEAVY!
Since Derek processed it himself he spent his whole weekend working on it. My freezer is now filled with deer roasts, deer steaks and ground deer! I'm thankful for it!
This is Drew's first season to bow hunt. A friend from church has taken Drew under his wing. (He has four daughters, so I think he's loving having Drew around!)I have no idea what to do with deer meat. Maybe I could talk you into a "how to cook with deer meat" post. ;)
