    Gotta LOVE it! 10yr Old Her First Deer

    This was probably a walmart slug not a cast boolit but it sure deserves to be shared. A friend's granddaughter in Indiana, 10yrs old, uncle gave her the shotgun for Christmas 2-3 years ago and she harvested her first buck with it early this morning.. One shot, right through the heart!

    The scope dinged her in her cheek, so she is likely to be proudly sporting a shiner this week at school!!

    Her Uncle was so proud of her he looked like he was chopping onions!! I would be too!

    Unfortunately school is one place she defiantly should NOT brag about her deer let alone take a pic in!

    Nice to see another young lady that has a interest in hunting. She looks as though she enjoyed shooting a deer and is not afraid of showing her accomplishment.
    I would be very proud also. Very Cool !

    Excellent start for the young lady. She is young enough that she can start learning more about hunting, then reloading, then casting. I expect the similar minded young men will be fighting to get her attention. If she marries a hunter he will have to be careful when he asks what she wants for her birthday and Christmas presents, could get expensive.

    Otoh, none of the boys at school are gonna give her any LIP! Would you mess with a girl that shoots a 12ga as well as a full grown man? I didn't think so!

    Great story, nice deer. I'm impressed with her shooting and with the processing of the deer.

    Have a blessed day,

    Leon

    Shooting the deer is impressive; helping with the processing is VERY impressive.
    Paper targets aren't your friends. They won't lie for you and they don't care if your feelings get hurt.
