1ST deer

Took my 11 yr old granddaughter deer hunting today here in NH (youth weekend) very fortunate to have a nice lil 4 point show up and she took the shot with a 243 at 65 yds, 1 shot. Ran about 30 yds, lungs were mush.

Only having a daughter myself, I love the pictures of successful girls. I'm happy to see other young ladies becoming an accomplished Huntress. Tell your grand daughter to keep at it, and great job!
