So to answer you question; People shoot little bucks because they are Satanic, evil people who only hunt for the purpose of torturing poor little animals. When it isnt hunting season, they torture puppies and kittens. If there are no puppies or kittens to be found, they abuse their own kids. Because, how dare someone shoot a legal animal. There just has to be a more cynical motive to doing such a dastardly deed.
I'm pretty sure you didn't read my entire post. I am not trying to start this argument over. I was simply poking fun at a previous thread, and wanting some lighter reading. But i'm glad that you voiced your opinion. Now would you tell the story of your first deer since thats all this thread is about?

Its all fun and games. I didn't mean to multi-post having some connection problems and didn't think it was going through till I looked at the thread again.

We drove back the long and bumpy field road to the backside of my farm. We met the other guys where we always did and decided where everyone was going for the day. Since it was my first hunt I got first pick and of course I chose the best spot on the property, the Hog Back stand!

So gramps and I trudged all the way to the back of the farm and down to a bench just above the river. We sat down and eagerly awaited the warmth of the sun. Morning came and with it the first shots of the season. I was antsy to say the least. Gramps kept telling me to be patient and it would pay off. We sat all day without seeing so much as a white flag!

Evening was fast approaching and I was losing faith. Gramps was not detered and kept telling me that they would be moving through about dark. Sure enough about 15 minutes before shooting light 5 deer appeared from the hemlocks on our right side and moved up the draw and onto the bench we were sitting on. My gun was at the ready and before gramps could say shoot when your ready BOOOOM! The 870 hastings barreled Remington roared. All the deer left but one! I was the happiest little hunter in the whole state at that moment. All the guys in our hunting party came and congradulated me. It was then and there I knew I was going to be a hunter for the rest of my life.

It is 10 years and many deer later, and i will never forget the feeling of accomplishment and commeraderie i got that day!
Maybe why some question your motives with this post is the fact that you tell us all about your gun barrel "Hastings" but not your "small buck".

So I had been hunting for a few years before my first deer. I had made plenty of mistakes that cost me my first deer in the past, not having the gun ready on a drive, snow in my peep sight, etc...but one day on my Grandpa's and I annual hunt was the day. Several cool things happened that day. At the last minute my dad took the day off and came with. Dad and Grandpa were making the drive I had screwed up on the year before when over the ridge came two deer. They broke across the tea bog and at about 60 yards I dropped the lead deer, a huge doe. The second deer leaned over and smelled the rump of the first deer, so I shot that one as well and it dropped with its head on the rump of the first...it was great...a spiker. So after my shot I hear my uncle yell, turns out him and my cousin were coming in from the opposite direction because they had taken the day off as well, so I ended up having the whole crew there for my first deer. Everytime I sit in that stand I can see the event happen over and over again!!

My first deer ever just happened to be a 9 pt. buck and I took it with a bow and I was 28 years old. I started deer hunting in the mid 70's and at that time you were lucky to see a couple deer a day. I started as a gun hunter but after a few years I realized I could greatly extend my season if I bow hunted. In November of 1981 I finally connected with my bow and at that time I was 1 of only a handful of successful bowhunters in my county. BTW,the antlers on that 9 point was so small, I could cover them with my hat.......lol. Had I missed that buck, I'd swear it was in the 150 class.

It was 15 years ago and I was 14 years old. It was the day before we left to go elk hunting and I found a group of 3 mule deer bucks grazing on the side of a pretty big mountain. I went around the mountain and hiked up the other side. Just before I got to the top I stopped and rested because I was sucking wind pretty bad. After I got settled down I went the 10 or 15 more yards I needed to peer over and there he was about 30 yards down hill from me. I went back over told myself to use the 10 yard pin since the angle was very large. I drew back stood up and looked over. he was broadside and I put the 10 yard pin of my little 45 pound bear bow on him and put it right behind the shoulder on the front side. He was 1/4rd away and the arrow hit the offside shoulder and the arrow stoped. I watched as he went down the drainage to the other side over some rocks and started coughing up blood and fell down the rock ledge into some thick brush. He was not only my first deer ever but the first with a bow as well as the largest deer I have ever shot. A 5X5 mule deer.
