The Hunt


Jason and his good friend Casey went hunting this last weekend. I guess on Saturday morning they had a bear approach them and threaten to attack them so they had to yell at it and wave there arms around to make them look bigger than he was. While they were trying to scare the bear away they both realized that they forgot to back there hand guns with them when they left that morning. They said it was a black bear and he looked like he weighed about 300lbs or so. He was about 80 yards away from them before he turned around and went the other direction. They think that he was so mad because they were invading his home area. They were both very freaked out. Jason didn't tell me this until he got home on Monday. I am glad that he waited to tell me because I am already paranoid when he goes hunting. On a lighter note though, the next morning they were hunting together and came across this giant deer. He measures around 34 inches across, at least I think that is what they are talking about regarding the size. No, it wasn't Jason that shot it, it was his friend Casey. But Jason was the one that got the deer's attention so that Casey could shoot it so Jason is just as proud of himself as Casey is. It is all he has been talking about since he came home on Monday. Forget the fact that you almost were malled to death by a bear, we shot a big buck. They are both so funny when they talk about it, every time they are on the phone together that is the only conversation they have. It makes me laugh, just like a couple of kids. Hopefully, next weekend when Jason goes he will be the one coming home with a deer or elk. Nice job boys.
