Most honorable #1 granddaughter, Mooselette, went afield for KY’s Yute Hunt on Saturday. She went in the company of her grandfather. This was my first time out as well since the Chemo.

Mooselette was armed with the same Marlin 336 carried by her father on his first hunt 20 years ago. We took the venerable 30-30 out to the Hollywood blind, settled in, watched the sun come up, and waited for the action that never came. Somewhere along the way we got to talking about family history and such. Somewhere along there we both took a nap. When we woke up, I radioed Daddy Moose to come pick us up in the truck. A good time was had by all.

The ammunition for this hunt came from the same batch used by a young Angus for his first Yute hunt in 2009: 150 grain Hornady RN over H4895.

Meanwhile, Moose had his .32 cal Tenessee Mountain Rifle out, pestering the squirrels in the Hundred Acre Wood. He has been working through the learning curve of hunting with a flintlock and finally scored a hit.
