Tamera Lundstrom, a sophomore at Floodwood High School, also harvested a nice eight-point buck on opening day near Floodwood.
Tamera hunts with her father, Pat, and has enjoyed steady success in recent seasons. This year, however, she harvested her buck on her own.
“I've been hunting with my dad for several years,” Tamera said. “Last year I shot a little eight-pointer, and the year before it was a six-pointer.”
That makes three bucks in three consecutive years for Tamera.
Her father built separate hunting stands for Tamera and her brother, Grant. Recently, Pat has been hunting with Grant, and the pair have seen several deer, including a couple of eight-pointers.
Tamera remained tight-lipped about her brother's chances this season, although she did mention that Grant harvested a nice, large doe last year.
Hunting is a family affair for the Lundstroms, with everyone pitching in after a successful hunt.
“My mom helped me gut the deer, my dad helped me skin it, and we already processed the deer,” Tamera said.
Despite her growing experience, the excitement of seeing a buck hasn't faded.
Reflecting on her latest success, Tamera described the rush of hunting on her own.
“It's such an adrenaline rush, especially this year, being by myself. You get all shaky ... buck fever!” she said.
With three consecutive years of successful hunts, Tamera knows that feeling well.
