Mine was a doe. It was many years ago, but I was mighty proud of that little gal. Took her on a high pressure Wildlife Management Area with a .50 caliber Thompson Center New Englander loaded with black powder and a patched round ball.

Mine was doe. Just at 100 yards on my lease in East Texas. Shot with my 30-06 my dad got me for HS graduation. Hit her in the neck and dropped in her tracks because it almost took her whole head off..

1969, 17 years old, Huge ranch in Alpine, Texas, shooting a borrowed Pre 64 M70, .264 Win Mag.
Small forkie was walking across the side of a hill, took me forever to finally see him. Put the crosshairs on his shoulder, squeezed the trigger, he dropped, shot through the neck. Luck was with me that day. Started a great hunting life for me.

I know it was a doe, but I honestly can't remember much about the hunt, or even my age at the time.

Spike, 100 yards with a .270 I was 12. My brother jumped me because I didn't see the big one at the fence when I shot the spike. He told me to shoot the first thing that had horns on it, so I did.
Born to hunt and fish.
