I passed hunter safety course at cabelas this year at 9 years old!

walked in a gate about half a mile and took a quad trail and he was laying under a big fir tree and dark timber and when he smelled and saw us he stood up. My dad set up my shooting sticks. That's when I aimed my gun. He looked with his binoculars and told me it was a buck. that's when I " tried" to shoot but it did not do anything. I forgot to chamber a round.

my dad heard the click and quickly reached over and did it for me. Then I shot and dropped him!

after that, I went and called almost everybody I knew while my dad gutted it. I was so happy I cried

Did you run into 2 hunters on your way out and talk to them? Your Dad was carrying your deer on his shoulders? If so that was my dad and I. Very nice deer and a great start to a lifelong passion

After you guys walk away we felt like idiots for not offering to help. You seemed to have It under control, but still we should have offered.

ya we had it. thanks for the thought though. she packed both rifles and the heart like a little champ. I was glad the deer wasn't any bigger than it was by the time we got back to the truck though.

Well done, young lady and congratulations!!!

You and your dad should be, VERY, proud of yourselves.

You'll get many more I'm sure but there will be none more special, regardless of size, than your first one. Our first one, always, holds a special place to use.

Being a dad, of a daughter, myself, I'll bet your father will remember this hunt with great pride and emotion that'll nearly, if not, bring tears to his eyes every time he thinks of it or tells the story to a friend. There is no better feeling in the world, than the feeling a parent gets when their child accomplishes a goal they set for themselves. I'll be honest, I didn't really "get it" until I became a parent myself.

Congrats, to you as well dad, well done Sir, well done!!

I am sooooo proud of you! Seeing you with that buck made me cry a little too. I know how hard you worked and how bad you wanted it (and your Dad too). After you showed Mad, she decided she was ready. Thank you for encouraging her. Let's hope she gets her chance this year.

Thanks, it means a lot to hear what you guys think of MY deer and the people who have wrote me can you post a pic of your buck?
