But what many do not realize is that it plays an important role by deer hunting on the ecosystem which is currently not stable.” Mills, Max. "Why Hunting Deer Is…
Today is the day I will try to hunt my first buffalo calf. I've been hunting with a bow and arrow for five years which is half of my life. I know I am finally ready to show the tribe what I can do. Some of the older boys in the tribe took me to another part of the woodlands alongside the Mississippi River because they spotted buffalos. Even though the summers get very hot I like venturing around the prairies. I hope that after today the older men will let me fight with them. If that happens, I…
smoke from the shot. I only heard the deer run away. As soon as the smoke cleared, I just saw the deer lying about fifty yards from us. My shot was a little high but still got both lungs. I never really saw the rack of the buck until I walked up to it. A fifteen pointer. The largest deer I ever saw. At that moment, holding the rack in my hands, it hit me that I want to keep doing when I get…
It was a cold rainy day in december when I went on my first duck hunt. This was the most exciting day of my life. I had been waiting to go on a duck hunt where I get to shoot my gun. We loaded up all of our gear and the dog. My dog was getting old she was 10 on that hunt and that was the first time I got to see her do her job, and that was retrieving waterfowl. When we got to the parking lot we unloaded our gear and started the long walk into the marsh. The blind we had chosen to hunt was a long…
so deep i coulden get out. So after about two days my uncle Harald came by and fell into but luckily he had a ladder in his back pocket to get us out. Uncle Harald has always been my biggest role model because he tought me how to scoot a gun, gut a deer, and how to climb. The first time that i can remember him teaching me to climb was when i needed to get the pop tarts off the top shelf. I can remember how he showed me to stack up all the cans and stand on them so i can pull myself up to the top…

sleeping, I would stare at any given spot and day dream of deer walking through. However, in reality we never really saw that many deer. Sitting there day after day I began to wonder why we didn’t see deer like the guys on all the hunting shows I constantly watched. Hunting never really made me impatient because I loved being in the woods regardless of seeing deer or not. However, one cold…

father became sick about a year ago, and the stock market crashed, it was my job to feed the family. I took a deep breath as I looked down the barrel of my grandpa’s old hunting rifle. As the buck was in my line of fire, I pulled the trigger. Click. The deer ran off into the woods, breaking sticks and dodging trees. He was a goner. I let out a painful sigh as I looked into the sky. The Sun had just started to set, I would barely be home by nightfall. I started the long hike back to town,…
