From the time we headed out after him to the time we walked up on him dead it was 52 minutes according to her social media posts. :chuckle:

It did go the way I planned it but it is really rare for things to actually go according to plan.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Congrats, nothing like spending time outdoors with the ones closest to you.

How wide is he? I would guess 26" or so?

Nothing better than hunting with your kids. I said it the first time she shot a deer when she was nine, I’ve said it a lot and I’ll say it again, I don’t care if I ever harvest another animal if I can be there and watch my kids succeed at hunting that is all I need for the rest of my life.

I could not agree more!  I haven't shot a deer since 2017 but we have put quite a few in the freezer!

Congrats on a great memory and fantastic buck!
