So I get a last minute text from my neighbor who owns the property where I shoot; "Want a Landowner tag?". "Hey Christian. Want to go hunting?" "Heck yeah!" he says. So, with a friend from out of town, whom I met right here on the CF, off we go before 1st light this am. 3+ hours after legal light, Paul and I are talking and "Ka-pow!" goes my custom 257 Roberts. Talk about an ecstatic son and one proud dad! 170 yds with 115 BT. DRT!

This is my favorite time of the year at the campfire. When all the posts with photos and stories of kids (younger and older) getting their first deer.
Some of my best hunting memories were spent with young hunters scoring their first kills. It is always a gratifying experience.
Congratulations to the OP and his son! May you both live long enough and enjoy enough good health to hunt together for many seasons to come.

Congratulations Christian and Dad!

Congrats all around. His first deer will be a memory he will enjoy the rest of his life. Hunting with your son or daughter is the best.

Good job to you and your son.
Nothing like experiencing these things through the eyes of a young person.
