Big buck for deserving hunter: Gary Arrington eight-pointer
Gary Arrington killed this awesome eight-pointer in early December in Halifax County. Arrington was participating in a special hunt that had been donated for the Hunters for the Hungry banquet auction held earlier this year in Salem. Arrington was the top bidder on the hunt.
It's great to see Gary kill a deer like this, the biggest buck of his life. He's the special projects manager for Hunters for the Hungry, and works his heart out for that great, worthy charity -- and the many needy people it serves.
This is such a busy time of year for Hunters for the Hungry that Gary's hunting time is fairly limited. When he did have time to get out, often his focus was on helping his wife, Angela, get her first deer. And, as you can see in the previous entry, he was successful on that end, too.
Very nice 8 point Gary! Thank you, from a supporter, for all you do for the Hunter's For The Hungry program.

Thanks Mark for your kind words, I am thankful God blessed me with this trophy but more thankful I was able to be a part of my precious wife getting her first and second deer this year, She's paid her dues and earned it. I am also so blessed to know so many wonderful people and have so many dear friends who were a part of the blessing Angela and I received. In addition I receive a special blessing from people like those who commented here and each and every person who has supported the Hunters for the Hungry program and allowed us to provide for so many less fortunate people in our communities and to promote our hunting tradition in such a positive way. thanks so much and God Bless you ALL!
