So, as I was going through the pictures and I felt that one experience deserves its own post! After three years of having a hunting license/hunters safety I have finally accomplished the task of killing. It sounds so brutal when you use that word, but that IS what hunting is all about. I did not do a lot of hunting in 2008 because I was busy with a newborn. However, in 2009 hunting season I learned just how difficult the sport can be and was unsuccessful at many attempts to kill various creatures.
This last weekend was dove hunting season and I was out with Seph, Joey (Casad) and his friend Tim. A box of shells had almost been emptied when BANG! I GOT ONE! Then I got TWO, then THREE, and then FOUR - the amazing thing was these (first) four were all RIGHT IN A ROW - I thought Seph was going to have a heart attack and my ego quickly grew!!! Then one miss and BANG a fifth - well, I ended up with EIGHT total for the day and I am pretty darn proud of that number. I finally feel worthy of being a Bellerive that can truly now be called a hunter. LOL
2nd post for the day, see below for the 1st
