Title: Daughter's First Deer
Post by: bobcat on October 14, 2018, 10:18:37 PM: Just got home, 6 hour drive, and I'm tired so won't write a big story here, but I'm really proud of my daughter, again. She got her first elk about 6 weeks ago, and then today, got a 2x3 mule deer. (3x3 if you want to count the eye guard it had on one side)

We worked pretty hard for this buck. Saw only one other legal buck, a nice whitetail running straight away and never slowed down. Got my daughter up at 4:00 a.m. two days in a row so we could beat other hunters into the very few public land spots.

She made a great 120 yard shot on this buck at 9:15 this morning. Pretty good for only being 12 and her first year hunting killed a nice cow elk her first day hunting and a mule deer on the second day.
