This year my wife and oldest son drew pretty great rifle Coues deer tags in the Arizona desert, and for a number of reasons my wife ended up not going. So, me and my two sons (ages 13 & 10) set out for a 3-day boys trip to try and get my oldest a shot at a buck. The weather was cold, the hikes were long, and the bucks were in short supply.
At the end of the day, though, we had a great time hanging out together in the wild. We pushed ourselves, saw some great country, and made memories that will last a lifetime. This episode is all about that experience, and some pretty poignant thoughts about hunting with your kids.
