That sure is a nice buck your daughter got. She will be hard pressed to beat that next year.

This is my wife's 2012 Blacktail 3x3 w/eyeguards.  We sat in a deep timber groundblind during a stormy afternoon.  It was late October during the rut.  We used a doe bleat and an occasional grunt.  I heard a grunt like sound but wasn't sure because the wind was blowing.  About 10 minutes later I heard another grunt, this time close and more clear.  Then came this buck, head down and licking his lips.  10 yard kill shot!!

My 2012 2x3 Pasayten Mule Deer taken on the last day of the season.  My 7 year old son was in a groundblind with me.  5 does came funneling down into a bottom we were sitting in, they walked right by us at about 5 yards away.  This was enough to get my son super excited.  I looked up and saw this buck trotting toward us at about 100 yards.  I whispered to my son, "Buck!!! Don't move and just watch."  I dumped him at about 80 yards.  It was my sons first experience harvesting a deer and he loved every second of it.  It was a day I will never forget and I'm sure he won't either!

And he'd have loved it if you shot a spike or a doe. Kids know how to enjoy hunting and spending time with dad. Great job!

I still remember being with my dad the first deer I saw him take. I was so excited, even though it was a small spike. We stared him down in a vine maple patch at about 30 yards while dad grew antlers on him. Then dad got excited when I ran up to the deer and proclaimed, "It's a doe!" The spike had landed with his head thrown back and the short antlers buried in the maple leaves. Put a scare in dad for a few seconds. lol
