COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL Nov. 9, 2016
PLAYOFFS
Grove lineman to create gaps
for Levings to exploit.
As North Valley started to look
like they could get into scoring
position, Hayden Glenn inter-
cepted a deep ball and returned
it 68 yards, which turned into a
touchdown run by Giffen, and it
looked like the game could get
out of hand.
But the Knights weren’t go-
ing down without a fi ght. North
Valley connected with a 26-
yard touchdown pass to make
it a three-possession game near
the end of the third quarter. But
Sentman promptly muted the
Knight’s sideline with a fi nal
touchdown pass to Glenn, giv-
ing the Lions an insurmountable

TIPS
35-10 lead.
Cottage Grove pinned North
Valley at their own one-yard
line, but the Knights busted out
with a 94-yard run down the
sideline before being stopped at
the six-yard line. North Valley
was then able to punch the ball
in one more time, making the
score seem a little closer than
the game was.
Sentman completed 18 of 29
for 214 yards and two touch-
downs. The senior also had a
pair of interceptions. Levings
ran the ball 17 times for 164
yards and one touchdown.
The Lions now look north and
will travel to Astoria to face the
8-1 Fishermen. Astoria muti-
lated its fi rst round playoff op-
ponent Gladstone 48-14.
However, if head coach Gary
Roberts has made anything clear
this season, it is that he doesn’t
let the undefeated season go to
the heads of his players. Though
the team has a playoff win under
its belt, there is now even more
work to do in preparation for the
third-ranked Fishermen.
The Reasons I Like to Hunt
It’s hard for some people to
understand why I like to hunt.
I don’t hunt just to kill a deer,
duck or turkey. I like to hunt so
I can watch the sunrise over a
frosted fi eld, hear the sound of
geese fl ying high in an autumn
sky and enjoy the retrieve or
point of a well-trained dog. I
like to hunt so I can feel the cool
wind in my face and warm sun
on my back. There are no com-
puters, no televisions; it’s easy
to escape for a little while. I like
to hunt because I get to spend
quality time with my sons and
my grandkids and make memo-
ries that will never be erased. I
like to hunt so I can see a deer
or turkey sneaking through the
woods. Sometimes I don’t even
draw my bow or raise my gun,
but when I do, I give thanks for
the opportunity to feed my fam-
ily and enjoy this special mo-
ment. That’s why I like to hunt.
Hunt the Does
Many hunters continue to
resist antlerless deer hunting,
believing that it harms deer
herds and buck hunting. Some
think it is unethical or unsports-
manlike. Others are too macho
to take anything but a buck,
even if it is a small buck. Let
me argue those points by saying
that wildlife managers will tell
you that doe hunting is the best
way to check herd growth and
prevent the overpopulation that
can harm an entire deer herd.
If does aren’t taken, they are
doomed to eventual waste as a
natural resource. Hunting strat-
egies for doe hunters vary little
from those of buck hunters. If
you continue to take little bucks,
you will never get a chance at a

How Smart are Deer?
How smart are deer? They’re
smart enough to understand that
if they stand still, even with little
cover, a hunter will walk right
by them at close range and never
see them. They’re smart enough
to run when they have to or slip
away silently when they can.
They’re smart enough to read
the body language of a human
from a considerable distance
with remarkable accuracy, and
decide when the man is a threat
and when he isn’t. They’re smart
enough to know when a farmer
is going harmlessly about his
chores and then know when the
same man becomes dangerous
with a rifl e in his hand. They’re
smart enough to recognize the
difference in sounds made by
a farm truck and a vehicle that
replenishes bait stations. They
can distinguish between dif-
ferent individual vehicles and
farm machinery by both sight
and sound. And as every expe-
rienced hunter knows, deer are
smart enough to instantly and
fully comprehend the full mean-
ing of the fi rst shot fi red at dawn
on opening day of deer season.
