kid's first whitetail

Recommended Posts

After a couple of elk and mule deer, my son decided to chase white tails this year.  We put away our glasses and still hunted a creek bottom.  We got really close to a lot of deer in a pretty short amount of time.  We caught this guy snacking on acorns with a couple of other smallish bucks.  He was hiding behind a tree, and I could barely see antlers poking out.  When the other deer decided to bolt, I told my son to get ready and shoot as soon as he stepped out.  Well, after about a minute of peeking around the tree at us, he got nervous and decided to make a run for it.  My son took a heart shot at 40 yards, and blew his heart right out of the other side of the deer.   It was a short track job.

Very Cool!. Man it is thick in there.

Yes, it was.  The deer were hiding in there, and there was no other way to find them than to tip toe in.  Even with my 8’s , visibility was less than a 100 yards.
