Hey guys, this is my first deer. I got drawn for a doe over on the east side in the colockum! This was two years ago when I was only 14. I have been hunting sice I was 9 with my daddy
I used a 243 to drop this deer. Enjoy

Way to go! I'm 20 and still looking for my first deer so a little jealous. Grown up a bird hunter though. Been hunting with my dad since I could carry a toy gun. It's my biggest passion in life now!

That is great. 243 is a great cartridge too.
The Colockum is some nice country.

Nice deer 243girl.
Congrats. When you shoot one this year share the story of the hunt with us. Good Luck in the great outdoors. Your on the right track, I didn't shoot my first deer until I was 15

Good job. I started at 12 with my Dad and didn't get one until I was 36. Read magazines and watch films on hunting and you'll get really good at it. I get two or more deer a year now (out of state).
Learn how to use a grunt call. They work and can be fun. The most important thing is to not let them smell you. Your Dad has probably taught you all this.
The thing I enjoy most about deer hunting is the experience shared with my Dad. We're still hunting together.
