So in what may have been a last ditch effort to get my middle daughter her first deer this year, we had success!! Our season was supposed to be cut short because of my hip surgery but my buddy that I helped get him his first deer this year offered to take Maddie tonight to see if they could have some luck. Thought that was pretty awesome so we drove down to the property and those two headed to the double stand where all 5 deer from the property had been taken so far and I drove around the back to crutch my broke ass to one of the ground blinds. So right about sunset (1700) I heard a shot that I was sure was them. Sure enough my buddy sends me a note to say Maddie shot her deer!! Evidently, two bucks came down the hedge row and popped out in front of them at about 100m. Soon as the one stopped BAM down he went, right in the front shoulder! No wait, I need to back up. Evidently my buddy forgot to chamber a round in my daughters gun! So the first squeeze was just a click. No worries, he handed her his gun and she then put one in the shoulder! Awesome stuff both my girls getting deer their first year in the woods! Definitely have a full freezer now!

Couldn't be happier! Going to be an awesome Christmas!
