My 12 year old G-daughter with her first kill. I traded a no longer used by me S&W 6 in 657 for a Ruger Mk II blue and walnut in 25-06 and gave her a couple weeks ago. But the Gunsmith did not get the stock shortened in time for season. Instead I loaned her my 700 ADL in 6mm-284 w/ Burris FF II 4.5-14x42. She used a 95 gr ballistic tip at 3300 fps mv to take this fat little doe. Her Dad helped her get prone for the shot which was just over 100 yds. She hit the deer in the right front leg, which you can see falling over the tail gate. The bullet shattered the joint and then traversed the lower belly which opened up and dropped the gut. We tossed that lower leg. But there was no blood shot nor gut shot on the carcass. It will be a fine eating bit of venison. She is pretty proud, as are her Daddy and PaPa. Sure beats the hell out of cussing Hillary!

The only thing which kept it from being a perfect trip: That Suzuki in the back of the truck instead of the horse trailer.
My Son owns six horses for his family of five, and several of them are well trail readied. And there are five more of the beasts out here in my pasture.
But no! He came out and borrowed the ATV.

She just read through this thread and was thrilled to see all the congrats.
Thanks guys!
She had me print off a couple 4x6's of the trophy pic. It seems that two of her 6'th grade teachers have invited all the kids to bring in and post pics of any kills.
Tis kinda cool to live in one of the last remnants of America.
