Giles December story involves a few members again... @OhioWhiteTails @MoonLab @Dustinb80 @Jackalope @Redneckfucker @finelyshedded
It’s pretty simple...literally there I was, looked over at Nate and asked him if he wanted to go for a walk and see my property. So BC, Nate and I went for a walk. A walk I needed more then I’d ever known...
As most of you know, I lost my grandma last week and had to put my dog down. My stand theropy has sucked around the house. Maddy and I seen a good mainframe 10 pacing the creek just off our property during youth season. No real shot offered and I told her we couldn’t shoot it anyways because it was off our land (by 10’).
Anyways, getting side tracked a little here. So we all grab a beer and head for a walk. I’ve stayed out of the thick stuff in the back all season but decided we were going in so I could show Nate a couple fishing holes, ones that Dustin can actually catch a fish in. As I was head forward walking, I hear Nate “what in the fuck is that?!”. I spin around and run past him and BC...three the water I go. SPLASH! Nate right behind me. SPLASH!
Things kinda got blurry as I was beyond excited. Dialed up the ODNR dispatch, snapped a couple of pics and headed back up towards the house for a rope and awaited a call from the GW. Got up to the house and told Christine I had just went on a $550 walk... Talked to the GW and he informed me I needed to take pics and text them to him and he would mail me a carcass tag. Grabbed a rope, a couple more beers and we all walked back down. Maddy included as she was excited to see how big he was up close.
Got him up to the house and the calling and texting began. I know I didn’t kill this deer or anything, but the meat is still good on him and I found him on my little slice of the pie. I’m also aware that I will never kill a deer of this caliber in my life, just not what guys like myself stumble into. Plus I’d have to let them walk and live beyond 1.5 years old
.
Stayed up way later then I should’ve listening to joe tell stories. Woke up D-runk and looked out my bedroom window to see Ric was here! Hobbled my fat ass downstairs and the high fives and congrats started again. Christine made some breakfast that was just what we all needed. Ate that with a side of the famous blueberry donut and life was good.
Now it’s 2 PM and my hangover is strong...on the edge of puking my guts out and need to go deal with this 179 6/8” deer I found.
Thanks again fellas, had a great time, thanks for the invite! Feel free to add whatever you want to this story as we all loved it together.
