Title: Jake's 1st deer :)
Post by: Schmalzfam on October 04, 2009, 06:31:29 PM: Well...he did it! Jake pulled the 2nd deer tag for Conconully and filled it up!! I was so proud of him. He had a couple jitter shots the night before but, on this one he redeemed himself. He shot her right behind her armpit and took out her heart and one lung..she did a nose dive. She was a really nice sized Whitetail with no fawns..which was nice.
But I'll be darned...There aren't any bucks there ;)

Post by: Birdguy on October 04, 2009, 06:58:03 PM: CHSNGSTLHD... EBAY is a great place to find kids camo. Search for kids camo, or cabelas or another brand. I have found tons of stuff real cheap for my seven year old. The older kids are a bit tougher and not as cheap but there is lots of stuff be patient and look after the season.

sorry about the :jacked:

Post by: Schmalzfam on October 04, 2009, 08:20:13 PM: He will be grinning for days and will never forget, that is so true. The big jacket he is wearing is his Dad's..he had to take it off for the gut job. But, the jacket under it we got most of their stuff at Joes but the new Holiday Mart and Jaegers up in Bellingham have some nice stuff. My 13 year old can fit into Adult Small usually is just longer than the YXl.

Post by: Schmalzfam on October 05, 2009, 08:56:30 AM: Thanks Charlie and everyone else who has posted. I know this will be the best deer this year for us, even if someone in the family gets one with a big rack! It was a fun one. If his older brother gets his first buck though...it will be a tie :IBCOOL:

Post by: Schmalzfam on October 05, 2009, 04:13:14 PM: One thing we found interesting is that Jake is shooting a 243 100 grain bullet and she was 50 yards away and there was no exit wound. Anyone have any reasons why that is??

Jake's Whitetail doe weighed 117lbs dressed out!! She was a big one for sure..
