Taken with her H&R 20 ga ultra slug hunter. Past two years the deer weren't cooperating with us, but today a group of thirty came running in around her. Proud day for me, just had to share.

That is awesome. I remember my daughters first deer quote well.
You both did well.
That is awesome, having my children hunt with me has been a great experience.
Congratulations to you and your daughter, that smile says it all.The memory of this hunt will last a lifetime.
If you are unwilling to defend even your own lives, then you are like mice trying to 'negotiate' with owls. You regard their ways as 'wrong', they regard you as dinner. John Farnam
Awesome...
What part of the mitten were you hunting?

Congrats to both of you. The family that hunts together stays together. She will remember this the rest of her life.
Awesome!!!! Proud father, very happy daughter!

When I think back on all the **** I learned in high school it's a wonder I can think at all ! And then my lack of education hasn't hurt me none I can read the writing on the wall.
Gratiot/Saginaw state game area. Just a few miles north of the rifle/shotgun line. This is the fourth deer taken out of this one section this year by the three of us, my dad, daughter and I. My cart is getting a workout this year.Originally Posted by Sweetpea
Good area... Was born in Midland myself...
Lotta Deer around there!

At times, last year was slow around there, but persistence pays off. We also hunt some private land, mostly farm land, just west of Owosso. The deer there are bigger, but that's unfortunately in the shotgun zone.
Awesome! My entire family hunts, not much deer anymore(we are getting old and the nieces and nephews are spread out all over the US), but prairie dogs and pheasants were on this falls schedule. My little brother and 2 brother in laws like to duck hunt, not for me, to dang cold out on the water.
That's neat. My grandson took his first about 2 weeks ago, a 60-70 lb doe. He's 10, had the same smile your daughter did. Priceless. Funny, he stopped me before I took the picture, reached over to the entrance wound, dipped his forefinger and middle finger into it and drew 2 lines under each eye. Where did that come from? Kids.
One of my father's favorite statements: "If I say a chicken dips snuff, look under his wing for the snuffbox" How I was raised, who I am.
Life doesn't get much sweeter does it?
Man look at that smile, I'll bet Dad had one as big if not bigger. Good job!

Brings a smile to this old face. Well done!
Ya can't buy a smile or experience like that, congrats to you both.
Yep, dad was a couple hundred yards away watching the deer come to her through a thicket, I heard the shot and saw the doe stumble and fall. Yeah, big smile on this face, her grandpa was within a couple hundred yards also, thick section of woods, he was also happy.
