On the way to school
« on: January 20, 2009, 04:25:45 PM »
Saw a yote in one of our pastures this morning while taking the kids to school. My oldest girl (12) wouldn't let it go, so we went back to the house and grabbed the 22-250. Long story short she made a great head shot at 150 yards. We had to hustle to make it to school on time and then I picked them up after school and we went out and took a picture of her first yote! Now, my ten year old wants her turn!

That is pretty cool. I hope my girls end up like that. They are about the same age difference too. I guess I have to wait a couple years the oldest turns 3 next weekend the youngest is still in diapers.  :chuckle:
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

That is a great picture of a great moment!  I miss those days.  My daughter loved to hunt, was a pretty decent athlete, (is going to college on a full ride for softball), homecoming queen, and good student, and above all a good person.  They grow up FAST!  Enjoy every moment like that one.  We are going to Spokane this Saturday to watch my son wrestle, then plan to hunt our way back on Sunday.  Hope to find some places to hunt over by Spokane....
