Les Davenport invited my family and me to go out on his boat with him and do some carp shooting with our bows. We had a great time!! We would hit pockets of fish and it looked like there were 100 fish in the air at once. My dad had the best luck of all of us. He even got a fish on his first shot!! I enjoyed the boat ride, the wind in my hair, seeing all those fish coming out of the water and then scooping them out of the boat with a net, the beautiful scenery and wildlife along the river, and just everything about the day was great. I recommend it to anyone who likes to shoot a bow. Just a few words of advice: wear old clothes because you WILL be slimy by the end of the day, wear a glove to protect your hand as you pull in the line, and wear a helmet to protect your head because you WILL get hit (just ask my mom). Thanks, Les, for a fun day!
We had a blast carp shooting this summer!!

Our Spring Turkey Season
June 19th, 2009Adriana and I had a really exciting spring turkey season. First, we went to Florida where Dad and I completed our Grand Slams. Adriana and I doubled on some Osceolas jakes, too, which meant that she had a good start on her Grand Slam. We got our Eastern birds at home then we headed for Texas. Adriana got her Rios that morning and then I went to the same spot that afternoon and got a 4 bearded Rio. It was very exciting since I called in the turkey myself with my HS small DOUBLE D call. Next, we went to Wyoming where the whole family got Merriam turkeys. Dad and I doubled one morning and then Adriana got hers in a different spot that evening which meant she got her Grand Slam. I was so proud of her for completing her Grand Slam!! Especially since she is only 7 years old. Mom went the next morning and got her Merriam too. I have had such a great spring getting to hunt and travel with my family. I look forward to hearing about some of your spring turkey hunts!
