So, here it is, some of the many from my son. Post them up if you got them.

Excellent thread.

Jealous of your son QH!

Here's a few that I happened to have on my phone...



And I'm fortunate enough to have 13 nephews to hunt with too..


(The little guy with the deer is the big kid to the right of the geese in the next pic. And he's 6'3 now)

Nice Dan. You gotta take'em to get them interested, don't you?

It's true. They want to do everything you do, so I try to include them whenever I can.

Awesome guys! Glad my nephew is finally interested in hunting, after a few years of chasing turkey, he wants to upland and waterfowl hunt. Very excited about the upcoming year.

My son has started passing shit in to me

No sons, here, but I do what I can.

Special Ed^

Assa, not laniebug

Yeah, I jumped the gun a little bit on this thread.

Good stuff Redman.

yours too Dan. So your son with the glasses. Has he always worn the metal frames glasses? How old is he now? Shannon and I have been trying to decide when to ditch Jack's plastic frames for something nicer? He's only 5 1/2 though

No, he wore goggles until he was 4 and then we switched him to the metal frames. The ones he wears now have a wire under some heavy plastic and you can heat the stems with a heat gun or hair dryer and bend them to fit over his ears, adjusting as he grows. You can also take them and bend the stems about 110* (nearly completely backwards) without breaking the hinge at the eyepiece. He's 10 now and has learned to be pretty careful with them, it's kind of a judgment call if you think he's responsible enough to take care of them, because new ones are expensive and take time to replace, I bet he went through 10-12 pair between 4-8.

I shit you not - less than two weeks after getting his first metal frames (after waiting 3 months for the prescription lenses), dumbass here takes him for a boat ride, we pull into the dock and he's pissed off that the rides over and starts throwing a fit - grabs his glasses and gives them a fling and $1,700 went to Davy Jones's locker just like that.

BTW, I think your boy's glasses look pretty cool.

holy shit 10-12 pr between 4-8?! Maybe we'll just stick to the cheap plastic frames for awhile longer. I don't think he's quite ready yet. The plastic just kinda loses its shape and doesn't bend back into place as well

zennioptical.com. My glasses cost $14.95, complete. Sunglasses were $24.

Every 6 months, and that's not counting the ones broken/lost/swimming.

I've got letters of medical necessity and all kinds of shit - you think I could get insurance to pay for even one pair?? Ha! Just grit your teeth and move on.
