Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Kids at the Campfire Daughter's first buck

Thanks for the positive comments. She enjoys her time in the field, and we'll continue to hunt together as long as that's the case.

Earlier that morning, while we were sitting on a hillside, my daughter found a walking stick (insect) and examined it for a while (as she let me know about the differences between them and praying mantises) before letting it crawl off on in the grass.
If you look closely at the objective bell of the scope You can see a walking stick on the rifle. We noticed it as we were getting the deer ready to pack out. It had turned pink on color. I'd like to think that it was the walking stick we saw earlier, hitching a ride on her shirt, hence the pink color. Had no idea that we caught a pic of it in out "trophy shot"!
