Shawn Report post Posted November 15, 2008 Jim, how about the story. P.S. My son T.J. says Jenna is a cutie Jim, how about the story. P.S. My son T.J. says Jenna is a cutie This is my daughters first deer. We got it on opening day, she did not get drawn for the junior hunt, we had to put in for a left over tag down south. Left camp around 4:45, hiked 3 and a half miles where i had done some scouting at the end of September. Around 12:30 we had just seen does. We went around the other side of the hill to glass across this big deep canyon. We spotted 2 bucks across the canyon about 500 yards away. One was a REALLY good buck, we eased our way down the hill trying to cut the distance down. Finally got to about as far down as we could go and they were still 400 yards away. We were glassing and this guy and two small bucks came out from bedding 100 yards below the other bucks. We got a good solid rest on a tree and waited for him to stand braud side and she drilled it. The hill was so steep it rolled about 50 yards down before it finally stopped. Walking up that steep hill was a pain, there was no carrying him down so we dragged him to the bottom of the canyon and gutted him down there. She had to carry a backpack full of gear which weighed about 40 pounds and i carried the deer back to camp. She is one tough hunter and she is hooked, we had an absolute blast!!! Not bad for a first shot at live game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simple Hunter Report post Posted November 15, 2008 Awesome. My little girl is only 2 and I doubt my wife will ever let me take her hunting when she's older. I took my wife predator calling one time...bad move. She was a pain in the *ss. Of course that's what I get for marrying a city girl. Good job Pops on gettin her out there.

Except a Moose of a boy that can haul his own game out Hence, (GameHauler) Keep up the good work. By the way, How old is she? Looks like she may take control of the family hunting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
