Setup the grandsons hunting spot

[hunter24605]

I had this spot stored up in the back of my mind for a while now waiting on Nathan to be old enough for deer hunting. It’s only about 900 feet off a dirt fire service road ,so it’s not a long walk, although it is all uphill. It’s pretty much surrounded by mountain laurel thickets, that open up to this small open area that’s about 3/4 of an acre. So pretty much if he sees it, it’s within his range ability. There’s a ton of fresh sign where they’ve been going after the acorns. And turkey have it scratched up. I think the ground blind will be the best route for a first time hunter. Of course I’ll be right beside him. It’s a little early to set it up on public land for rifle season, but I’ll probably let him tag along while I hunt with X-bow for a doe and fall turkey.

Looks like a great spot. Best of luck to you and your grandson this fall.

Looks and sounds as if it will be an ideal spot for a young hunter. We're pulling for him, and for you.

Nothing wrong with a good old blind.
Yesterday I set up a ground blind between an oak and crab apple tree for bow season.

If your grandson is unhappy with the spot I’ll come hunt it.
