I took my oldest granddaughter (11) on her first real deer hunt this m orning. We've been working toward this day since she was nine. We had eight bucks show up early this morning. One really nice eight. They didn't stick around long. I told here we have to be patient and wait a bit longer and hopefully something else would show up. About 8:30 this guy came out. One shot with her Winchester featherweight in 243 and he was down. 110 yards. While not as big as the buck that showed up earlier, he's big enough! One proud grandpa here!

Great. Way to get the younger generations started. I think it’s good she got the smaller buck. Work her way up.
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations. RWH

This is SO great. Props to you for getting her out in the field hunting. I love to see this. My daughter is 32 now and still loves to go hunting with me.
