Grampa Pulls it Off!! at 90!!!!
My father-in-law, Tom Gregory Sr., scored this beautiful 8 point buck using a Kimber 308 Winchester rifle- a solid choice for white tail hunting.
It was late in the day, prime time as we call it. A storm was rumbling in with some lightning flashes sending the message to GET OUT OF THE WOODS! As Gramp was walking back to the cabin, my brother-in-law Tommy said, Dad look- it's a big one! Gramps looked to his right to see this awesome buck, a real beautiful trophy white tail.
Gramps with his monster buck!
Now. Most of us prop our gun against tree to steady our shot. Not Grampa. Did I mention he's 90?? Well, he brought that Kimber to his shoulder and BAM! Perfect shot! The deer ran a bit and sure enough it was Grampa who found him just over a noll.
We were ecstatic! There weren't enough words to describe our joy and admiration for our beloved Grampa, often referred to as "Ole Man".
You're never too old folks to do the things you love. Enjoy nature. Enjoy family. Make those precious memories and as always- Shoot Straight :)
