Hello, I'm Michelle. I got into hunting a little differently then alot of others.
One day my husband's buddy shot a buck and needed help locating it. So I tagged along with camcorder in hand. As I stood near the treestand, waiting on them to reappear, a doe and her twins walked up on me. Standing as still as I could, I realized I had the camcorder in my hands. I took loads of pics and lots of video, as they ate and played in front of me.
As I watched them walk off, I finally took a breathe. Then I thought that if I can get this close to them in street clothes and a camcorder then I can get that close in camo and a crossbow.
That fall I downloaded all the hunting ed stuff I needed, studied, and in Novemember I took my hunters test and passed only missing one. I've been hunting ever since. When I can sit long enough, I enjoy my time out in the woods. I love it out there. This spring, my husband took me on my first turkey hunt too. It was so cool to hear them in the distance gobble at ya. I will be trying that again!
