My Lucky Little Sister


My little sister Cary-Anne has to be the luckiest hunter I know. She is a very busy girl, between being a full time nurse and keeping up with her impressive curling career she basically has no time to hunt. Even though she has way too much on her plate to worry about hunting she still loves to do it. She makes sure to pick one day a year to go out with myself and Dad and attempt to harvest something. This season wasn't any different. Wednesday November 17 was her one day this year and lets just say she made the most of it. Even though she doesn't care all that much about antler size she seems to get a nice sized trophy every single year.
With the video camera rolling the little brat took this nice mature White Tail Buck, it was a fun hunt. It was about -25 with the windchill and a blizzard but she showed no discouragement when we found an extremely fresh set of tracks crossing a logging road and told her we were going to follow them. She bundled up and led the charge as we stalked through the willows. We came across the nice Buck in a small clearing within an hour. The Deer was about 100 yards broadside, it happened fast but she made no mistake and placed the shot perfectly behind the shoulder right in the old boiler house.

Remember to check us out on facebook on the group "Lets Go Hunting Or Fishing With Mountain Man Adventures" or our website www.mountainmanadventures.com and keep checking on our weekly posts on this blog, I will be posting two this week, the next one is about a couple of monster moose I guided for earlier this season. It is a good story./
Thanks, Tom Sallows.
