It's a start. My first deer was a doe fawn. Most people don't kill a giant deer for their first. Congrats.

No such thing as "only". He's yours and will live longer than if you had never been there.
Good job.

The first deer I ever killed was a 4 point buck. I got alot of BS over it, so I know what your going to go through. Nice job. Buck or no buck. Big or small, its always a great feeling to say "Deer Down".

Vabyrd...Priceless bro! Let him have it!!! :D

I say leave the guy alone. RemingtonShooter, how old are you? No disrespect if you are older but from the picture you look like you are 18-21 maybe. Hey kid, listen It was your first deer and you should be proud of it. Now that you have that first kill out of the way move on to bigger and better things. Best of luck to you in the future!

Nice deer! Something you'll never forget for sure. ^^ You need to shut your mouth, or bring the post of your doe back over here.

Hey man congrats on your first, you'll never forget it, Hey thats just wrong for people tomess with him,in some placesdeer dont get any bigger than that because of jackers and poor deer management..... Anyways GREAT job

RE: first buck
 
Heck, I've hunted for 11 years, taken deer in 6 states, and even got some nice ones... But I still shoot button bucks if they give me a good shot at least until the freezer gets full enough for me to be selective.

Hunting is very personal and means different things to different people. That's one of the reasons why the sport is so great.

im only 14 not 18 or 20

RE: first buck
 
good job bud! theres nothing wrong in what you shot, be proud of it. there is alot of people who dont even get a chance at shooting any deer during their season. my first deer was a yearling doe and i evenmounted it! some people laughed, but it was my acomplishment and i worked hard for it, congrats brother, your on the board!!!

23 What kind of remark is that it's his first deer , he can be proud of that deer. Kids should Always start out with a doe or button buck other wise if they shoot a big buck they my become discouraged if they can't get one bigger next time or the following year. So again remingtonshooter1 be proud of you buck and don't let people like that tell you other wise..

Ijust stated my opinion like all of you guys did. Thats what makes America great, wecan allhave our own view. My doe was with bow first off so thats totally different then with gun and the doe dressed out to be 115 pounds.(2.5 years old according to the butcher)Yes, you can legally shoot that but some self control should be used when hunting. Not using self control is called being a SLOB HUNTER.



tim03b 11-02-2008 06:34 PM

RE: first buck
 
Its his first deer. Let him alone. People like you make me sick. I mean instead of saying good job and congratuating this kid you have to put him down. I just dont get it.
Dont worry about that guy bud, you should be proud of that deer. Congrats.

pkarp23 11-02-2008 06:37 PM

RE: first buck
 
tim03b, I can say what ever I wanna say and people like you make me sick praising a person that shot a deer that weighs less then a coyote. I love killing deer dont get me wrong but that is rediculous. I would really like to know what it weighed dressed out.

kodiakhuntmaster 11-02-2008 07:38 PM

RE: first buck
 
I shot a button head today, it may have weighed 65 pounds field dressed... It was bigger than the doe I got with my bow earlier this season.

I don't know about you, but my time is limited, and my land ain't all that great. I've got plenty of self control, just not enough meat in the freezer to dedicate my limited time in the field to hunting only antlered giants just yet. Last year I only had one shot opportunity all season. Sometimes you just have to make the best of the few opportunities you have.

Sack punch for you.

Stating an opinion is one thing, acting like an a$$ is another. Self control has nothing to do with the size of deer. Self control has to do with keeping some things to yourself.

He is 14. Holy **** do you make fun of 12 year old girls with braces too.

With a beginning hunter and especially a young person, I think we need to use a different standard of self-control here. The standard needs to be that he got his deer safely without endangering anyone, that he did it legally, and that he exercised the patience and self-control to not scare the deer, blow the shot, etc.

I think our young hunter did all of those things, so be careful about criticizing. It could ruin hunting for him and that hurts all of us. He's got a reason to be grinning from ear to ear. This young man has just made a major step in learning to hunt. Let him be proud. ANY safely taken and legal deer for a young beginner is a cause to celebrate. It's much better to congratulate him for what he did right and gently encourage him to improve--say setting a goal of a forkhorn or better next year.

Again, congratulations to remingtonshooter1 on your deer. You might start thinking about next year and what your goals will be to be a better a hunter. What deer will you take and what will you pass on? You don't have to decide now, of course, but it's something to consider befpore next season. Also, what you need to do better your hunting abilities in the offseason? May many more deer fall to your gun.

Congrats on your first buck man. You'll remember him. Heck I know some hunters that would love to have gotten him. Like someone else said, you're up on them. Congrats.

Congrats! That'll be some great meat on the dinner table. My proudest buck was one about the size of yours as well.

fastetti 11-03-2008 09:32 AM

RE: first buck
 
Congrats on your first deer! I was taught when I started hunting to shoot the first legal deer I see, after your first deer to try to go bigger everytime. No one should make fun of a first deer, it is something you'll remember the rest of your life. Congrats again, he'll be great eating.

I second that sack punch and any guy who makes fun of someones first deer has about the same respect on this website as the guy who comes in and makes posts trying to sell Nike shoes!!
