My oldest girl got a spike in front of her at 65 yards and made a perfect shot. I was hunting with my 6 yr old but grandpa and her got it done. Her 3rd deer but first one grandpa got to be with where any of grandkids killed a deer. Not sure which of the 3 of us was more excited but it was an awesome day to be a dad. She made a perfect shot, about 6 inches behind shoulder and exiting in middle of the other shoulder. He was dead right there. I got them a Ruger American compact ranch rifle in 300 blackout with 1-4 scope shooting 130 gr remington hog hammer which is barnes 130 gr tsx bullets. The exit hole was about the size of a quarter.

Thanks everyone, now in hopes to get the little one another deer, she is shooing handicap for now cause she was giving a girl a piggyback ride and they both fell on her arm, broke both bones on forearm so she is in a cast but had her out doing some shooting with it and at 75yds it should be meat on the table.

I love deer hunting probably as much or more than most but after watching my girls shoot deer i had much rather watch them than me pull the trigger. Its been a lot of fun showing them game trails, rub lines, scraps, and getting them to tell me where they would put a blind up. Nothing else like it, its awesome stuff.
