Daughters first deer
 

My 12 year old daughter has been sitting in stands with me since she was nine. This fall, for her birthday, I bought her a .243 and hoped that she would get to kill her first this year. Tonight she did. She killed a doe with a perfectly placed shot from about 90 yards. She was so proudand so was I. In fact, I gotthe whole thing on video and by listening to me I think I was more tore up (excited) about the whole thing than she was. Anyway,here are a couple of pics, one with her deer and the other, well just a long standing a tradition.

Enjoy these days afield with her. Seems like last week I was hugging my 12 y/o daughter as we stood beside her first deer. She's 17 now. They grow up fast.

Congrats to both, it is great to take a child hunting and getting one is all the better!

I agree, she doesn't look too thrilled about blood on her face but tradition is just that :D
