Comments From the Mentors and the Young Sportsman
· Mentor – “This is the fourth deer Heather has harvested in 5 seasons. This was the most exciting hunt for her. She has matured as a hunter so much from age 10 to 15 and I now consider her to be a good hunter. Our hunts together have enriched our lives as a Father and Daughter.”
· Mentor – “Casey was a very tentative hunter. Good concentration and shooting abilities.”
· Mentor – “This was Bradley’s third year of deer hunting. He was lucky enough to harvest a button buck last year. But so far this year he hasn’t gotten one yet.”
· Mentor – “Megan was very excited about hunting. She harvested a large doe early on a Saturday morning with her uncle Dan’s, Knight muzzleloader. I think she is HOOKED!”
· Mentor – “Very good hunt. Pretty cold. No shot at bucks – too far away. Good shot on doe at 55 yards – shoulder shot. Very clean kill. Dustin Johnson, age 11, 1st deer killed 1/11/03.”
· Mentor – “Getting to watch a young sportsman (my son) harvest his 1st buck has been the most exciting and fulfilling day of hunting I’ve every experienced.”
· Mentor – “Stephen learned, you have to be alert at all times, because you never know when the deer will show up. He enjoyed the hunting trip and being outdoors, except for the cold temperature in the morning.
· Young Sportsman – “Thanks TWRA for the hunting vest, tee-shirt, Etc.”
· Mentor – “Very good hunt. Seen deer. Missed shot on Doe”
· Mentor – “The hunt date was cold and we had a good time with John, but didn’t see anything. Better luck next time.”
· Mentor – “Used skills taught during hunter safety as well as from family & friends. Very rewarding hunts – great way to spend quality time with my teenager”
· Young Sportsman – “A moment like this is one to be cherished. Not only the harvest of the buck, but the quality time with my dad and doing something I enjoy.”
