Great start to the season for my daughter. We started with a crossbow and hunted one day morning and evening with no success. THE Next weekend a buddy from work invited us down to hunt at his place. We had deer in the field with Ann hour of sitting down. She was able to connect with one at 20 yards. IT Made it about 50 yards on its death run.

Fast forward a couple Saturday now it's opening day youth season. We had a ruger American compact that's taken my nephews first deer as well as my nieces first deer chamber in 223.
Didn't take long and "SuperStar" decided we needed to move to the shoothouse I tried to get her to go to. As we was walking to stand we saw two deer not more than 60 yards from the shoothouse. She was able to connect at 205 yards off my backpack and had her first deer with rifle. It was a decent 7 point and I'll have to say there wasn't two tickled folks. I just don't know who was prouder.
She has practiced a lot and will say has handled it all very.
Now I guess I'll brag alittle and say a turkey at 5 and a deer with crossbow and rifle at 6 there a proud Papa around.
Will get buddy to post a couple pictures

Pics of the young Huntress.

Congrats and good for the young gal!

Congrats and love the looks on their faces, you can't beat that.

Hell yes well done getting them interested at a young age. Well done

Great job!
Our oldest grandson got his first bear a couple of weeks back, at 5!!
It's good to know that we have up & comers following.

Outstanding!!! Congrats to you both!!!

The smile in that top pic got my allergies going just a fuzz!!

Congrats to all involved.

I was over at their house this weekend and the annual school pictures had arrived and were on the counter. Her smile didn't seem as realistic in those as it does in that top deer pic. I wonder why???

Awesome! Congratulations!

I agree. If you could see the live version of the photo it would really work you.
Defiantly the best hunting season yet between the turkey this spring and her deer this fall. I don’t even know if I’ll even shoot this year.

Very well done!!

Pretty impressive!
My daughter is 9 and not quite ready she said to hunt. I respect that even though she's more than capable. Good on you and way too go for your little girl! I bet you're on cloud nine

So I've reached a certain age... I don't have young folks to take out anymore.. Now I am guiding retirees... Results are nearly the same.

Whoop!! Don't know whether to call her Annie Oakley or William Tell. Nice buck and doe and those smiles.

"Huntress!" Word of the week! Congrats young lady!

Congrats to the young lady!

She’s hooked now.

“Raise up a child in the way they should go and when they are old they will not depart from it.”

Excellent start !

I’ve defiantly enjoyed it. She’s ready to go anytime we get a chance. Got a couple older bucks hanging close. Their not monster horns but mature deer and hopefully she will get a chance at them
