    Watching my 12 year old hunt this year and take his first deer.

    Being able to still be here to fish and hunt and be with my children! I am almost through “Bonus year #2!”

    For renewing some old friendships, and starting some new ones.

    Here’s to all of yours!

    This year, I’m thankfull for family and friends (new and old!)

    But I must state what I’m mostly gratefull for is my pal, Chris Tuckner. Here is why:

    My father of 82 years had a pace-maker put in a few months ago. He is right handed, but has shot a gun all of his life left handed, due to his eye being bad. Well, with the pace-maker on the left side of his chest, the doctor forbidden him to shot a gun left handed.

    It was going to be a very sad year this year, for deer hunting. My father who taught me everything about deer hunting 22 years ago, was going to sit out. It wasn’t going to be the same.

    Well, in BS’n with Chris Tuckner, he showed me his slug gun, with the Accu-Dot scope. See, this gun is set up to shoot with both eyes open. Chris asked me if I wanted to use it since I fell in love with the set up, but I love mine too.

    So, an idea popped in my head about Pops. This would work for him. With the gracious offer from Chris, he sent the gun home with me, for Dad to use.

    Dad was a little skeptical about it and had a hard time adjusting to the new gun setup. But come Saturday evening, it didn’t help out the doe that came out of the woods 70 yards from him.

    Thanks Chris, for giving me one more year hunting with Dad and Thanks for letting Dad use the gun!!!!!

    It made our last year special!!!!
