Nelson went on a whitetail deer hunt in Iowa. He stayed at a farmhouse by himself that was built in 1920. He has been wanting to do this for sometime because there are only mule deer in Utah and I guess there is a difference between the two. This is a picture of some Canadian geese Nelson enjoyed. No he didn't shoot them.
Nelson shot a doe and a buck. I hope they didn't have babies together that are searching for their mommy and daddy. Nelson said it was about 8 degrees outside with the wind chill making it feel like 15 below. (I'd rather go somewhere tropical myself). He sat in a blind all day by himself and froze. For fun!
This is the proud buck. He brought the antlers home and a few back straps of meat. The rest of the meat he donated to the Amish that lived nearby. It's a nine-point buck. This will be our third mounted buck and maybe fourth set of antlers that get to adorn my walls. His friend Tyler is practicing taxidermy and is going to mount it for him. Nelson loved his trip but is enjoying the warm, cozy fire.
