There is some magic in watching a Sitka materialize out of moss and fog in the rainforest.

Had a fine time in Colorado. My son and his buddy were able to join me, serving as extra eyes and strong backs.
Met IDHUNTNFISH on a two track. We kept up with each other during the hunt.
Buck was pushing does when I slipped up on him. 257 WBY.

The Sitka Blacktail bucks my son, Joe, and I got this past Saturday on the north end of Prince of Wales Island, SE Alaska. See the write-up on Live Hunts; A Family Hunts the North End of POW

My 2020 Wyoming whitetail, and my 2020 season collage. Had the greatest season I could have asked for this year!

Finally got one that represents the animal! Talk about a huge body. Pictures really dont do justice to this buck.

Here are the vets who rifle hunted my farm and my folk's farm this year. They had a great hunt with lots of deer seen and choices to make. The second pic is of our neighbor's pup who took a liking to the two vets and spent a morning helping look for deer. They said Sophie didn't impact the hunt negatively at all. The third pic is of our vet who had never hunted deer prior to last Saturday.

We've been having vets with disabilities come hunting for the past 8 years for deer. A couple during muzzleloader and the rest during our firearms season. Only one has not got an animal and that is because he didn't let the bolt close by itself on a BAR .243. It went click on that buck. That deer survived the season and his name is Click this year. He is the buck I am after this year. That vet is coming back next year

The organization that helps me find vets for these hunts is Freedom Hunters. They sponsor these hunters. We are not outfitters just families that want to give back to our vets. Freedom Hunters covers the hunters expenses and sends me names and hunting interests of people they feel would be a good fit for what we can offer. I then contact them and ask the vets if they'd be interested in coming for a hunt. Almost all have said yes, the nos have been rainchecks for another time if still interested.

It has been a tough year for all because of covid but especially for non profits that need fundraising events to keep going. Freedom hunters is no different. I encourage all of you if you can, to go to freedomhunters.org and donate what you can or get involved in some other way if your not already involved in a way to give back to our veterans.

Thanks for reading. Good luck to all of you on your next hunting adventure.

Willy
