Thanks guys.  I got him on the site this morning and he saw all the comments and compliments.  He was on cloud nine when he left for school, just like he was the day after he got the deer.
Awesome story!! Great job getting him out there and involved and great shooting by him.  That's about 60 yards farther than my farthest deer so Great job!

THis summer we took a trip to Montana for some scouting.  A friend of ours lives on a ranch that has a ground squirrel "problem".  We spent two days out there walking around with shooting stix, shooting greydiggers with CoryTDF's .17 HMR.  Best marksmanship training you can get for a kid.  Had the heft of a deer rifle, but no kick, so he could shoot all day, and instant feedback (exploding, flying squirrels :chuckle:).  His long distance accuracy improved exponentially this summer.
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Congratulations to Jr!  Way to put in the time and dedication practicing, target shooting.  It all really paid off in the end.  What a great hunting lesson to learn early in life.  What a great hunt!
