First Hunting Trip
First Hunting Trip

I wake up around 5:00 A.M. to a big early morning breakfast that my dad had cooked. The smell of the eggs, bacon, and toast made me vivacious. I got out of bed and put my cloths on. Then went and had delicious breakfast. When I was eating I could feel the sense that my dad, brother, and me where going to have so much fun. I know that if we didn’t catch any deer which is what we where going to hunt we would still have a great experience. I also thought to myself that this will be the best hunting trip I will every be on. Considering I’ve never been on a hunting trip. After I ate I went and got all the hunting stuff on like heavy-duty paints and shirts. Stuff like that. All my hunting stuff that I just put on my dad sprayed with no sent the night before. No sent is an oil that takes the human sent away so the deer won’t run away if they smell something. After we all got the rest of our hunting stuff on we started our little walk out in the woods about a little father that a mile behind our house. When we finally got there my dad sprayed deer sent that would attract the deer to come closer when the wind carries the sent. After my dad set the deer sent around the trees, now all we had to do was wait.
Wait for a deer so we could get a shot off. This trip was around the end of October so it was getting cold. I had some extra shirts and sweaters on to keep me warm. I even had those hand warmers for my hands. I had so many thoughts running though my mind about how exciting it will be to catch my first deer. But than also what will it taste like and will I like it. I knew that I might have to sit and wait a long time before any deer came but that’s part of hunting. Also I got to enjoy nature. I sat down on the ground with bushes against each side of me and me camouflaged. But then I realized that the ground was moist and damp so I sat on a log that I found instead. The wind was blowing and it was cold out. You could see my

    I looked out the back window of my dad’s white Ford F-250 at the trailer with our camouflage four-wheeler and hundreds of pounds of bait. I was only 11 years old and I was on my way to Two Harbors, MN to hang stands and put out bait for the upcoming bear season. My dad, his brother, his 12-year-old daughter and I were all drawn tags for the 2010 Minnesota bear hunt which opened September 1st. It was our second year of applying for the lottery and we were lucky enough to get drawn. My dad and uncle made a few phone calls and eventually we had a few hundred pounds of gummy bears, donuts, trail mix and cake frosting for the bears.…

    It’s November, so that means its deer season. Every year deer season starts on the second weekend of November and last for ten days. I get really excited around August because during this time my family and I start exploring the woods looking for signs of deer. We look for signs like scrapes on trees, footprints, and tall grass that looks like it has been laid on and flattened. We set salt blocks out around our tree stands and set our cameras out hoping to catch a picture of a big buck. After we finish all the preparing we wait until the first week of November. During the first week of November we go back to our stands, check the salt blocks, set new blocks out, and grab our cameras to take back home. Once we get home we look at the pictures…

    It is a freezing twenty-two degrees outside. Even though it is still too dark to see, as you look over the hills, you see a breathtaking sunrise that will soon creep through the heavy fog. Every breath that you take is like smoke coming out of a dragon's nostrils. As you are waiting patiently, still, and quietly, you finally see your kill, the white-tail deer. Without a doubt, the white-tail deer should be hunted.…

    I could hear the blood pumping in my ears, away from the situation, and I started calming my breathing. I headed back to camp, content with trying to forget what I heard. The heavy footsteps of a creature larger than simple game. Almost as though just hiding from me, either to prepare to pounce, or to hide. What bothered me most however, was not that it was seemingly a creature who just wanted to hide, but that it hid. It sounded like a large creature, but a deer would have run, and a wolf would attack, followed by others. What was that? As I reached the campsite, the flames of my fire were softly dancing as though doing a waltz. I checked all of camp, but all the food and supplies I had gathered were gone. I headed back into the woods to the spot where I heard the rustle of leaves. The forest was still unsettlingly still, so I made the point to make my presence be known. I searched for any signs of where my belongings could have ended up. I stumbled upon a skinned deer. With that I knew I was not alone. I searched further, and found the hide on the ground near the river. I lifted it, wondering why any creature would skin a deer just to leave the hide behind not too far…

    This is the start of what seemed to be just another original deer opener. Dad and I got up around five o'clock and we put all of our hunting gear on. We then grabbed our snacks and some Halloween candy. Now it is about five thirty and we are on our way to our deer stand, which is about fifteen minutes from our house. This year something felt different. As we were driving on the road we were almost to the deer stand and a ten point buck runs out in front of us. He started running right for our deer stand so we had to hurry up and get there. When we finally get up in the stand and got the heater turned on we are all situated for the long wait.…

    It was crazy to start the hike with green grass but end up in snow and freezing rain and mud. On one part of trail we were hiking and fell into the icy cold river. We had to peel our boots, socks and pants and put our thermal gear on. Of course this brought on more rain. We sprinted down a large mountain while freezing cold with no boots or socks on. Everyone was miserable. We finally made it to our campsite, where we started a fire and listened to bugling Elk while staring at the stars. We woke up the next morning to three large Mule Deer looking into our tent.…

    The Great Outdoors

    Not only is hunting an exhilarating experience but so is the feeling of being surrounded by wilderness. During winter times since I was 12 years old, my father would take me out on long drives in the middle of winter to hunting sites just outside of Edmonton. What made the drive not seem so long was the scenic route we would always take. Every once in a while I would see little white rabbits hopping around and leaving miniature footprints all in the snow next to the road. Further down the road we would pass a fairly big hill that had two pine trees at the top of it. I always wondered how long they had been there considering the fact that they were over thirty feet high. Finally we would get to the hunting ground and make are way down to a little patch of brush where we would crouch and wait for the deer to pass by. The feeling of the cold snow crunching under my boots, the frost covered branches of the bush we were nestled under, and all the little footprints that surrounded us gave me a feeling of unity with nature. After hiding in our spots for a long while, usually until my feet and toes were completely frozen it seemed, my father would whisper “Here comes one right now”. A few moments later I’d hear a loud bang and we’d be back on the road with our trophy and bragging rights. We have carried on this tradition every…
