My dad at 64

[Toney198]

My dad got 5 deer with 5 different calibers this year! The last one being with the iconic 308. All solo!

Your dad’s a stud. Good for him!

My dad (85) was with me when he shot his deer again this year. It is truly a great experience to share with him and my son and grandson. We had all 4 generations jn the woods at the same time hunting. I would not trade it for anything in the world!

My dad fell at work last week and broke his leg, it's a worker's comp case. I just wonder about the reaction of whomever handles his paperwork. He'll be 91 in March.

Well, I am only 59, a few months away from 60. Today is the last day of regular (rifle) season in the north zone of Texas. So, I was out there. As were a few others.

Everyone has read those stories of catching a deer on the last day of the season at the last legal light.

I did not get anything but winded.

But was a beautiful day and perfect weather. About 30 F but by the time I was leaving, it was 50 F.

And I would dress and quarter the deer where I get him and carry that out in full frame backpack (with fold down meat shelf.)

Nothing yet, still hopeful.

I’ll be 64 this year , 36 years of working on transmission pipeline crew , has taken its tole . 4 vertebrae fused in my neck , 2 herniated in lower back , 2 hernias , 3 types of arthritis , and stage 4 cancer survivor . I refuse to give up , I can’t cant do as much as I once did or I will pay for stupidity . Shooting my M40 , is kinda tough anymore , riding the hard tail Harleys is done , and predicting weather is way more accurate that the local weather man .

I hope I’m HALF as active as he is at that age. Congrats to him!
