PIC OF THE WEEK:
This week's "Pic of the Week" is Jay Lamell, who had an unforgettable 2025 year in the Vermont deer woods! In Jay’s words:
"I set a goal this season, and I’m proud to say I accomplished it—harvesting a deer on my own property. There’s nothing quite like it. The biggest reward hasn’t been the harvest; it’s been getting my kids out there with me. Watching them build their own connection to the outdoors makes every second worth it. We don’t shelter them from the realities of it. Instead, we teach them to do things the right way—safely, humanely, and ethically—while understanding where their food comes from and why we manage the land the way we do. Early muzzleloader season, I was fortunate enough to harvest a beautiful 120-pound doe right on my land. The best part? I had just enough time to get cleaned up, pick the kids up from school, and bring them back out to track and recover it with me. Those are memories I know we’ll carry forever. Later in the season, my buck came out of my trusted stand location after a full day sit—from first light into that final hour when it all seems to come together. I had passed on a few bucks earlier, unsure if they were legal. Then this one appeared, cruising toward a field. I hit the grunt call—he stopped, turned, and came in on a string. At about 45 yards, he gave me a perfect broadside shot, and I was able to make it happen with my .308. My first call was to my wife and kids. I met them at the edge of the woods and brought them in. They helped track, field dress, and drag—getting hands-on with the entire process. They learned anatomy, respect for the animal, and that the real work begins after the shot. The deer are a blessing—but the time spent together, the lessons learned, and the memories made with my kids… that’s what matters most."
Congratulations Jay for teaching your kids the family tradition of enjoying God's great outdoors together.
