Hope 51 is better than all the others. Good luck and thanks for sharing.

I have to say I almost did not open the thread because I, too, get turned off by the number crunchers, but then I saw who the OP was and I remembered the content of his post and knew it wasn't what it at first appeared. Glad I opened it. Great post.
I'm a few years behind you, but I'm hoping my son will one day be able to look back with such fondness as you enjoyed as a kid. That, in essence, is what this is all really about.

Great write up. You've been blessed and obviously appreciate it for what it is. Numbers? Ha, the man uses buckets!

Way to look at the past. Great story

I carried my father's last Missouri gobbler out of the woods in 2001, our 17th year hunting together in Missouri. My brother and I still make the trip, and I always begin my hunt on Dad's favorite ridge. I stop by the tree we used to lean against while waiting for the first gobble of the day, and later in the morning I will visit a scenic overlook where we used to eat a breakfast bar and drink a juice box.

For those who are still lucky enough to hunt with a parent or child, treasure every minute.  The memories you make now will last forever.

I believe my first spring was 1990, so this will be my 27th...wow, still just as excited as the first.  Hope to see 51 as you have.

I am sure 51 will be as good as the rest!!!

I hope there's plenty more in your future.  Great post.  Made me think of past hunts.
