Dang it!

I had a great one of my oldest with her deer. You would think I would pay more attention to what is going on around here. Go ahead and dock my pay for the week.

My 9 year old with his first buck. Rifle is a Marlin XS7Y Youth Model .308 Win, shooting 125 Gr Hornandy Reduced Recoil Loads, topped with a Cabelas Pine Ridge scope with yardage markings. A single shot at 328 yards did the trick. Broke the offside shoulder and put him down in his tracks.

My daughters first deer. Took her to Idaho with me this year. 110 yard neck shot dropped it in it's tracks. Good shooting since that was only the second time she shot her rifle. The rifle is nothing fancy, it's a Mossberg ATR in 30-06. She got the rifle for Christmas last year. Her uncle spotted him for her.
