my daughter's almost buck (pictures)
« on: November 16, 2007, 05:45:44 PM »
I took my kids out this afternoon and we were walking along an old fire-road when a very nice buck steps out in front of us, he doesn't even know we're there but sees us right away and turns to go back uphill before my little girl can line up on him. we continue on with one kid who can't keep quiet and another who won't keep up, but we're doing good when we hear a shot ring out from up the hill, we go up and see a hunter bent over a buck so climb up to see what he's got and find it's an old friend of the family so we watch him dress it out and help him get it the road and then take a few pics of the buck we "almost got" with the man who did!

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

So is your daughter encouraged or discouraged now? Hopefully she is encouraged!

she's learned to stay closer that's for sure! I carry her shooting sticks since I didn't want the extra weight of a bipod on her rifle. she's very tired this morning so I'm not sure she'll get up for a last day hunt, she was at an all-night birthday party for her grandmother, non-alcoholic in case you get the idea I'm not a good parent for letting her go.
