Title: Wife's first deer.
Post by: jayrod9528 on December 15, 2013, 04:44:25 PM: I took my wife out on a depredation hunt this morning and she got a nice Doe. She made a great shot in some serious wind.

She did a great job. 120 yards 25mph cross wind perfect neck shot the doe went down like a sack of taters. Meat is hanging now.

Yep. I love that rifle. I never take it anymore I'm so scared of hurting it. My wife loves it so she gets to shoot it.
