Personal Narrative: Deer Escorts
From being hopefuls to new girls, we stood back and watched what we thought to be the greatest drill team dance. We admired the precision and passion the team held in their performance. We watched back stage while our excitement grew that we had finally made it to the Deer Escorts. While watching, a “new new no more” seemed to stand out on stage. Her bright eyes and big smile filled the stage. That next Instatllation, she became our squad leader. She was sweet to us and a litle shy, but made us all feel welcome. She made our new girl year as best she could and never lost hope in the challeneges the team faced. She had our respect and admiration. From new girl year to junior year, she became our colonel. She was still sweet, humble and poised.

    The trail continued around the east side of the lake entering a gathering of trees forming an insignificant forest along the lake’s shoreline. From our viewpoint, the trees concealing the trail eventually dispersed on the southeast side of the lake, and the trail blended into the landscape. Using our imagination, we envisioned the route against the rugged terrain sloping into the lake. No point in taking a vote now, we had trekked to the lake and the consensus was to proceed with a lap around the lake.…

    A lot of valuable information is given to the reader throughout the book Ultimate Deer Food Plots by Ed Spinazzola. Personally, I’ve been able to take everything presented in the text relatively easily with the help of my prior knowledge. All of the advice in this book is relative to my life every year. If I had to choose however, the points that have stuck with me the most are: the importance of correcting soil as well as past vs. present land management layouts. Both of these topics are so important when trying to create great hunting land. Starting with soil correction, I have always known how critical it is to have good soil (based off of my own food plot results). My dad and I’s first food plots didn’t turn out great, as expected. Barely…

    It’s November, so that means its deer season. Every year deer season starts on the second weekend of November and last for ten days. I get really excited around August because during this time my family and I start exploring the woods looking for signs of deer. We look for signs like scrapes on trees, footprints, and tall grass that looks like it has been laid on and flattened. We set salt blocks out around our tree stands and set our cameras out hoping to catch a picture of a big buck. After we finish all the preparing we wait until the first week of November. During the first week of November we go back to our stands, check the salt blocks, set new blocks out, and grab our cameras to take back home. Once we get home we look at the pictures…

    It is hard for me to admit that I'm afraid. Being a black woman in today’s society, I constantly feel the pressure to prove something. The pressure to destigmatize, and rise above—to be better than the ill-gotten images depicted of my race and sex. The pressure to carry the entirety of my race and sex wherever I go, yet still be an individual. Facing all the pressure to become the model “strong independent black woman,” I am hesitant to admit I am afraid because fear is seen as weakness. Picture a horse or deer with their stick-like legs shaking in fright in cartoons—the stark opposite of historically mightier figures like lions or jaguars which portray power and confidence. However, what one may forget is the legs of that horse help pull the weight of 400 pounds, and the body of a dear can annihilate a two-ton vehicle. So fear—or what looks like fear—isn’t always a bad thing.…

    Mud flew up all around the field, hitting my clothes and face like cold clumps of clay. It also shot onto Stormy, the black horse I was handling. Gem, the other horse, was kicking up the mud from bucking and running around the field. Stormy was getting nervous, too. She was breathing heavily and her eyes were rolling back. I tightened my hold on her lead rope and prepared for Stormy to spook and run me down.…
