First Buck

There are only a few things that are as memorable as your first buck, and on a cool Oklahoma October evening a couple of weekends ago my nephew did just that. No, it was not the biggest buck roaming the mesquite flats there, but it was a great 3 year old buck that carried a handsome 8-point rack.

As great as it was for him, it was equally as good for me because I was sharing deer camp with him when the arrow was released. It was great hearing the story as only a young bowhunter could tell it as we recovered this Oklahoma king. Not a detail was left out and I felt like I was in the ground blind with him when the broadhead smashed through his chest. I could tell by the excitement in his voice that he was as happy with the result as I was, and I know regardless of how many bucks he kills in the future, or even how big they become, he will always remember this first buck.


Now if I can only get his dad to kill one...but that's another story!
