My 11 year old got to deer hunt with a tag and gun in hand this morning. She cashed in on her second opportunity - first deer got too close to the elevated box stand and she couldn't get him into the scope. I think this is the same buck, just showed up again. About 50 yds, 20 gauge rifled slug gun with loads she loaded herself with the Lyman "monster pellet" slugs and 12 gr. of Unique.

You realize that you will now need two stands, two rifles, and you will have to drag two deer! Great job getting a youngster hooked on hunting!

selmer;
Thanks for taking the time to share this special family moment with us sir, these are some of my favorite moments at our 'Fire.

Please pass along congratulations to your daughter on her buck - good shooting AND good eating there. cool

I'll send you my customary tip of the hat too as these hunts don't happen without a lot of time and energy put in - so well done sir.

Thanks again, all the best to you and yours and good luck on your remaining hunts this fall.

Dwayne

Congrats to your daughter. My youngest Niece, now 13 loves to go deer hunting with me and loves to use one of my AR15's in .556. She likes to hog hunt and dove hunt, too.
