Fun stuff! I love deer camp, it’s a shame more kids don’t get to experience it. More deer camps and dads with their kids would solve a vast majority of our problems.
You learned more in that camp trust me. Spent 5 hours with my boy scouting this morning. You can’t replace that time.Deer camp circa, 1960...My dad would take me out of school every year for a week in the Sierra's (D-12), or Nevada...I hated school, loved to hunt...

I wonder how a conversation with your grandfather would go discussing today’s world.
Id love it
I was talking to my dad (92) the other night about some of the places we hunted & fished in LA, Orange, Riverside, and San Berdo counties...Really never had to drive much further than 45 minutes (& no freeways).
The Sierra's were totally different too...I stayed in many a old miner's cabin...This is with my grandpa, and my 2 uncles in a cabin that still had a newspaper and stuff from the turn of the century.
