Daughter got it done

[Shooter McGavin]

Took my daughter out of school to fill her tag today, she said they were only going to watch movies anyways. Went to Redington since it was close. Started glassing and the hills were littered with doe, every canyon and ridge had movement. Made it really fun looking to see which one of these had antlers. As we started to descend a small hill I look up and see a deer in a bowl, I tell my daughter get my newly won AES 15x56 binos out to see what we can see. I say, it's got horn. She immediately says, can I shoot it. Of course I say. We get set up and and I range it at 342 yds, see gets set up, extends the bi-pod legs and says, "how far is it". I responded 330, squeeze the trigger whenever your ready. Seconds later, boom and I see deer drop and tall grass twitching. Did I get it, she says. You sure did, the smile I got from her was from ear to ear. Walk down, tag it and drag it. By the way, she was all in camo, the blue shirt was just an undershirt.

 

Unfortunately my youngest was not able to fill his tag yesterday, but he is oh so ready for 2017.

 

Great year, awesome new memories and meat in the freezer. Headed to Rocky Point tomorrow for Thanksgiving. Turkey and rum & cokes on the beach. Life is good.

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all CWT.
