Great story! Congrats to your girl!

Not being married to any particular political party sure makes it a lot easier to look at the world more objectively... Having said that, MAGA.

JackAZ; Good evening to you sir, thanks so much for sharing the wonderful hunt story and photo with us.
Please pass along congratulations to your daughter on that fine looking cow. I'm sure that it will make for many, many fine meals.
I'll pass along a tip of the hat to you for making sure the hunt took place too - well done sir.
Thanks again, all the best to you and yours this fall and good luck on your remaining hunts this fall.

Great job to you and your girl! Sounds like she made a great shot even with a difficult angle. Good for her.
She sounds like a tough young lady. She will use that toughness to deal with detractors. She knows where her burger comes from; that others will complain about her efforts with a stomach full of feed-lot meat is their shortcoming.
My 11 year old daughter got her third deer just this morning. Her mother took her our. She's not allowed to hunt elk in MT until she's 12 but she is dying to do so and is jealous of your girl.
We practice with deer targets. I sometimes have her take a shot while I count down to get her to speed up. You can even do it at home while dry-firing.

I get too wrapped up in work, politics and other bull shyte too often. Great stories like this help keep things in perspective. Congratulations to both you and your daughter.

God bless you and your daughter, and may you both continue to make many memories together with your family.

Congratulations!
I hope she'll be healthy and hunting for many a decade to come.
It's a shame that the "politically correct" are stigmatizing hunting and she's being pressured. We all need to be good representatives of our sport.

Congrats to your daughter.. and to you as well...
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.
