Son and I set aside our trophy management goals for once and let Hutson get his first deer. I couldn’t be prouder. He’s been hunting with us since he was two years old and loves it! He’s been shooting various 22’s and such for a good while and has proven to be a good shot. This week he was hunting with our son and this buck showed up and gave him a nice broadside shot. I got down from my stand and videotaped the recovery. Perfect heart shot. He’s chomping at the bit to get #2 now. He used my Carolina Precision Rifles 7/08 on this hunt. Now it’s his rifle. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/ZY9mRZR7/E71-C5144-0-FDB-4-D68-813-A-386-E5-C0-DE58-E.jpg) Earlier pics of my buddy: ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/G2GZF3yd/92-ED8-FAB-5-A36-414-C-96-BC-D2-A229-FC54-F3.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/SQZGZFfh/129-B0644-5-C56-4-BBF-8-FD9-63-B255-FF4756.jpg)

Awsome. My six year old daughter got a 7 pt opening day of youth season.
Nothing like watching them light up and jump out of bed an hour before daylight ready for another one

Nice buck. Good deal; he’s probably hooked for life. 😊

Great way to teach kids. Picture clearly show the gun pointing a people. It was unloaded as soon as the buck was recovered. But I get your point.
