I shot a gun for the first time this Christmas
break. Kyle took me to his uncle’s house so I could learn- it was scary and
thrilling. All throughout high school all of my guy friends talked about
hunting and fishing, and how much they love it. I have been fishing many times,
but I have never been hunting. When the opportunity arose to go hunting with
Kyle, I decided to see what all the hype was about. I was excited to get all
dressed up in camo and paint my face, but I wasn't sure if I could keep quiet
the whole time and not scare the deer away. It was a long and very cold day,
but I had so much fun! We drove out to Jackson, Alabama to the hunting grounds
he has, and we waited all day to see a deer. We were just about to give up
around 5 o'clock when we saw our first deer! I don't think I have had enough
practice to shoot at a deer yet, so I want to practice more and next season
I'll be ready. I had a great day getting a feel for hunting, and just being out
in the woods with Kyle. I won't be able to make another trip before I go back to
school next week, but I'm already hoping to go next season!
