My First Buck

My grandfather and I, were in a spot just under the place where the food was. We had done the technique with the squad and we were ready to catch this big buck. My grandfather an me had not sleep a lot because we watched a movie about the hunt and also a movie about the World War 2. So when the time had arrived to hunt, I was a bit tired. I fell asleep just beside a comfortable tree in our spot. We all know that when you fell asleep at day, it is always in a bad moment. When I fell asleep, it was in a bad moment also. A given moment, I wake up and I hear a little sound of a deer that walk in the autumn leafs. At this moment I was 10 years old and the only thing that my grandfather said to me was that if I see a deer, do not make a sound. This what I do, when the sound began to be closer and closer to my grandfather and me. Suddenly, I saw him. I saw him, the famous buck! After a few minutes, I heard a big carbine shot. I was so much exited, but I remember that I do not make a sound. I was so happy to finally catch mi first buck and to catch it with my grandfather. I did not do a lot, but my grandfather was proud of my and he was proud to teach me also the hunt rudiments.

              

Tecniques of Hunt

Firstly, you have to know that the hunt is an art with a lot patience. You have to know a lot of things about the environment and the hunt territory. The type of hunt depends also with the temperature. If the weather is rainy or very hot, the deer will want to stay lying down under a spruce or a fir and the condition of hunt are very hard. Your chance to see a deer or a moose are difficult. However, if the weather is cold and there is no rain, you have more chance to take a buck. There is a lot of preparation for a season of hunt. A big success needs a a spot where you put some apple,carrots, block of salt and many others. The foods depends of the type of deer and also the period when you put the foods in your spot. My secret is that you go at your spot to put apple with a quad each day before the time of the hunt. After, the deer are accustomed to all your visits and they know that when there is a sound of quad, there is foods. This is the technique that we use, me and my grandfather, to kill my first buck. 

We pretend to put some apples with the sound of  the squad and after we put the squad in our sugar shack. The deer thought now that we were left, but after the squad at the sugar shack, we had walk at the spot of hunt. We were ready and we were waiting the propitious moment. The best moments of hunt are at the beginning of the day and at the end of the day. Why is like that? Because when the weather is cold, this is the moment that the roe want some foods to warm up his body.
