Well our season here opened on the first with archery season. Kyle went on his sheep hunt for a couple days at the beginning of rifle (sept 10) and unfortunately we have found a lot this year is people not playing by the rules....aka driving in road closures. It has been unusually hot (high 20's -30C) and the animals have been harder to hunt. Most are staying by the rivers where it is very thick or is private property. But we still head out, hoping. The kids have gotten out tons and are having a blast. We took them to a waterhole that gets lots of animal traffic. The waterhole is surrounded by a ridge that raps around from the north, east to the south end and the west end is timber. So we set up on the ridge laying down with the rifles about 30 yards apart. Girls vs. Boys. We had our phones on silent so we could communicate. After about 5 mins the kids were bored, Easton was fidgety and picking grass and Pheonix was rolling around whispering away. We didnt see anything. They lasted about 40 mins before we decided to pack up and the wind had changed and was blowing the wrong direction.
They had fun and thats what counts.
