It was a warm mid-september day. I was wearing jeans and a sweatshirt and I was ready to go deer hunting. Me and my dad ate breakfast and packed up all of our bags. This was the first time going deer hunting this year and I was very excited. We were going to go hunting behind my grandma’s house. We were planning to sit out in the woods for a long time, but that did not go as planned…
Crunch, Snap, Crunch! ‘’I hope I at least see a deer today’’ I thought to myself. Then I thought that even if I don’t get a deer I would still have a great time with my dad.

There was a lot of blood and that usually indicates that it was a heart or lung shot. We followed the trail until the treeline and headed into the woods. I wondered how far we would have to follow the blood. Only about 5 feet into the woods was were the big doe lay.
A few minutes later my dad gutted the deer the deer and we hauled it back to the house. We hauled it back to the house. ‘’This thing is heavy’’ I thought. We got the deer up to the house and hung it on the tractor. We Sprayed the inside of the deer with water, so all of the blood would get washed away. The we kept it hanging so it could dry. I can’t believe I got a deer I thought again after all of the
