For those of you who may not know, Kevin was chosen to go on a Life Hunt with BUCKMASTERS and the Jackie Bushman show. He went hunting with 10 other hunters. All the hunters had life-threatening illnesses or disabilities. There were a few kids with different kinds of cancer. A little girl with kidney problems, a boy who is a burn victim (who we later found out has cerebral palsy and a heart problem... breaks your heart, don't it). There were also two "wounded warriars", soldiers who were wounded in Iraq. The kids just had a great time getting to know eachother and sharing their love of hunting. Kevin got to meet celebrities Jackie Bushman and Mark Chestnut, as well as several important people in the hunting industry. Troy and I enjoyed spending time with the Buckmasters staff and parents of the hunters. There were ARMY personnel that we got to know pretty well. We came home feeling pretty patriotic. Those guys left quite an impression on us.
On the final hunt on the last day, Kevin shot his deer. A 3 point buck. We were all so happy... not to mention relieved. He had a camera man there with him, so he might be seen on the Jackie Bushman show on the Outdoor Channel in the upcoming season. The deer head will be mounted and sent to him later this year. It will hang in HIS ROOM.
