My son and I also had a great trip. Started out a bit rough on day one when he missed two different really good whitetail bucks before 9:30 am. We scrambled and found a buddy who could get us on a range and discovered the kid somehow developed a significant flinch. Some dry fire work and a replacement rifle that he had confidence in and we were back in the game. Day two we went back after the whitetails and unfortunately could not get the shot opportunities as they came in from odd angles for our setup. Did manage a good javelina as a co fidence boost. Trip back to the AirBnB to shower off all of the fleas and back to chase Nilgai
Got on one at last light on day two, but shooting conditions were rough (standing in brush, out of breath) and it was a clean miss (I should not have had him take the shot). But Morning of the 3rd day we got it done on a good bull. He wanted to go backmout after deer or another nilgai, but I said we were done (already had one Nilgai in a cooler from the hunt I booked before his hunt).Last edited by jmveverka; 01-03-2023, 10:18 AM.
