Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.
Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.

Probably from his dad...or some character that shoots big cats with a .38 Snubbie.

Excellent! Great shooting from your son. It also proves how totally worthless a .223 is on deer sized game.... Oh wait...

Congrats to Jacob! (...and dad!)
Threads like this are the very best part of the 'fire! LBP, I can only imagine how proud you must feel--not just 'cuz the boy bonked a couple critters, but because of the work and preparation that went into it. Also, the character your boy exhibits in order to safely handle/shoot guns while respecting the game he hunts. Yup, kids' Hero Shots are great, but mostly for all the behind-the-scenes lifestyle choices that they represent.
You've got that boy on the right path, and I congratulate you! If you and Jacob ever find yourselves here in western Washington, please make contact--I'd be happy to buy you lunch and get to know you personally.

Probably from his dad...or some character that shoots big cats with a .38 Snubbie. It wasn't a snubbie..it was a 4" barrel.....IO like to keep the as far away as possible.....

outstanding photos
and from all appearances outstanding lad and dad
well done!
but for future reference a .223 won't kill a deer
honest, I read it on the internet

Congratulations to you and your son, LBP. Looks like you've started him down the right path. Probably from his dad...or some character that shoots big cats with a .38 Snubbie. It wasn't a snubbie..it was a 4" barrel.....IO like to keep the as far away as possible..... The leopard/.38 event has been alluded to many times here, but I've never read an account of the adventure. I get the basi gist of what happened, but is there a thread here giving the full story?

Here's a poor pic of the 4-point spike. He was a large 3 point on one antler and a weird ball like knob on the other side.

That is some good shooting. Congrats to the hong man.
A gun in the hand is worth more than the entire police force on the phone.
