A Rewarding Second Chance

A Rewarding Second Chance by Zane Graham September 29, 2012 was opening morning of bow season in west Texas and I headed out to a blind where we had gotten trail camera pictures of a nice 8 point.

Romeo

Romeo by Trisha Jorrey I was introduced to hunting and firearms by my husband.  At first, I would go to the lease and sit in the blind with him but I wouldn’t shoot. I was just his lookout gal and student. Eventually I decided I wanted to hunt and he gave me my first rifle, a .308. I have never stopped hunting since! I shot my first deer from an open tripod stand, in … [Read more...] about Romeo
