Congradulations, you  You made a big step in keeping her out of trouble in her teens. Nothing like hunting and fishing with dad. I have 3 girls and they all like the outdoors! STB

Thanks everybody. She was thrilled to say the least. Saturday beat us up pretty bad with the weather, and the 30 yarder that she couldn't scope frustrated her but when I got mine right away in the morning and she got hers in the same spot a little over two hours later it capped a great weekend. She even tried naming the lungs, liver, heart etc. What really made it great is that she got her deer at 11 and her sister got her first at 12 so she beat her by a year. Em missed three on the safety test and sis missed two so there's a bit of rivalry. I would have loved for her to get a buck, that would have been something else. Hopefully she stays as excited in her teens as she is now. Her older sis isn't as interested in waking up early and freezing to death so for now it's just me and Em.

Here's a pic that Em took of me carting the deer back, That was a real chore, one deer is no prob but two is punishing. These carts are fabulous for wheat country hunting. These deer were just over a mile in.

You both did a good job. Just think of all that fun you are going to miss in the late hunt now... :chuckle:
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.
