My daughter's first buck!

[Jayhawkhuntclub]

Okay, not qualified for this forum (used a 125 gr SST - 300 BO), but a great moment in her life and mine. What a great hunt. My heart was POUNDING! She made a great shot and took out both lungs. Last night of rifle season. Her second deer of the season. Her 3rd deer in her last three trips out (crazy). She's 13.

My daughter will kill prairie dogs like swattin' flies in a cow barn, but she just can't bring herself to shoot a deer.

[Edward]

[brstevns]

That picture says it all !!!!! [smilie=w:

Nice! I started my youngest son with 125 grain jacketed bullets in a .308 with 37 grains of 4895. Very little recoil, still kills fine.

What general part of Kansas are you in? We're up in the Flinthills and are fortunate to have a lot of public land around Milford lake to play on.

[Rick R]

Congratulations to you both! Nice deer!

[castalott]

Well Done!

Tell her I think her name is 'Diana'..... "The Goddess of the Hunt"

Good Times...Good Memories.... I couldn't be more happy for you....

Congratulations ,that young ladys smile says it all.

[Thumbcocker]

Great memory for both of you. Congratulations to the huntress.

[Jayhawkhuntclub]

Thank you to all for the kind words! I showed this thread to my daughter. For some reason she doesn't like her smile. I always tell her to smile in pictures. But she usually resists. I too think she has a great smile (really big!). It made her feel great to read your comments. Thanks again!

To answer the question: I hunt in NE Kansas mainly Atchison and Jefferson counties.

[Grmps]

You are the sneaky dad.... Get her hooked on hunting with store bought ammo ---- then get her into reloading :-D. Congrats

[Fishman]

What a great picture. I've been there so I know how proud you must be, and rightfully so.

and I have to add that your young lady has an outstanding smile!

[LUCKYDAWG13]

Congratulations to you both

[Bzcraig]

Very nice and she sure is beaming!

[Jayhawkhuntclub]

You are the sneaky dad.... Get her hooked on hunting with store bought ammo ---- then get her into reloading :-D. Congrats While I am sneaky, they were handloads in 5.56 brass I scrounged from the range and converted. I am a scrapper for sure. Store bought ammo? Now that would be embarrassing!:mrgreen:

[richhodg66]

When I was stationed at Leavenworth before I retired, we hunted a huge patch of WIHA land just north of Achison, terrific place and lots of deer and never saw anybody else using it. Can't remember exactly how to get out to it, but it ought to be in the pamphlet KDWP published every year.

[35 shooter]

What a smile and a good shot to boot. I think it's great that she lets her dad tag along on the hunt too lol!
Nice buck too.

Congrats to both of you and well done!

[CLAYPOOL]

I thought "THOSE" rifles didn't have a legitimate use.....?

[TCLouis]

Congratulations to the young hunter.

[DougGuy]

WOW just WOW! Her face says it ALL dad! Yessir! A very fine hunt! Now you gotta start her on her own cast iron stuff, by the time she gets ready for a nest of her own it will be well seasoned and any boyfriend with half a brain would know better than to do her wrong! BONK! Parenting don't get no better!

[Brad Cayton]

Nothing wrong with that beautiful smile! Congratulations to her and to you dad.

[kbstenberg]

+1 for all above posts
My GS first was just as exciting as my own. Its best when you can be there with them!!!
Her smile says it all!

[GunnyJohn]

Congrats to you both. Smart feller teaching her to hunt....least you know you'll eat good when you are old and gray.

Great job! Keep hunting!

Congratulations to your daughter and you! Was fortunate to have a similar experience with one of my daughter's this year. Nothing like it.
