Hope everyone's having a good time here!

I'd love to know, what’s one hunting mistake you’ll always remember? Maybe it was that moment your scope went busted, or you realized the boots you wore were totally wrong, or perhaps you spooked the game way too soon. I’d love to hear your stories. Let’s swap some lessons and have a good laugh along the way!

Not exactly a hunting story but, one fall when I was around 19 years old I went out and bought me a new jacket, one of those old style diamond quilted ones. Well about three days later I take my 30-06 out to sight in as deer season was coming up in about a week. Went out in the country on an old road got out and folded that new jacket up and put it on the hood of my truck to use as a rest. Yea you guessed it, never took my eye from the scope till about the fourth shot when I seen stuff blowing out in front of my scope. Jacket had come un-bunched and the breeze had blown the arm and side up in front of the barrel, blew that new jacet to pieces.

Is the jacket still with you right now? That's a memorabilia right there

On my 7th birthday 5 days after receiving new Ithaca 37 20ga Xmas gift, Dad and I went quail hunting. I missed couple of birds. Dad ribbing me about shooting like a little girl. I told him to throw his hat and I'd show him shooting. He did....I did.....peppered his red plaid hunting hat with his Nilo Farms metal pin on it. We had a good laugh. He wore that hat til he passed. Dad has been gone 20yrs, the hat NOT...37 also NOT. Couple of my many treasured Dad remembrances.
