After quite a few sits with some real close calls. He got it done last night with a nice 6pter. A couple min before legal this buck came by at 22yrds. The shot looked good, but we still gave him time. Its hard to convince a 14yr to wait, im sure it felt like hrs. We had good blood and found him 100yrds from where we shot. He took this with his late grandfather's exomax. I still hunt with this bow myself. Proud dad moment for sure.
Right on!!!! Congrats!!! Must be proud for sure....I've killed a bunch with a rifle....but at 42...I'm still waiting for my first Xbox deer. Good job....
Good job. So nice to see the younger generation enjoying the outdoors.Quote:

Congrats to the young hunter! That's a hell of a first buck. A nice symmetrical 6-point and those shoulders will make some nice roasts. What kind of mount are you considering?
He was very excited and anxious to go tracking right away. I take the tracking part slow and very seriously. So it was hard to make him wait that 1/2 hour. 50 yards into it i figured we were good with the amount of blood, although i still stick to the 100yrd rule. He was ecstatic when he found him (hes 14yrs old). I couldn't imagine doing this at his age.
I tried to make this whole experience as fun as possible. Telling him to only shoot if hes steady and ready. I also told him to not be upset if he doesn't shoot. After a few close calls im glad he got it done. He was being hard and putting pressure on himself due to the close calls. So it worked out perfectly. I even let him drive the farmlane on the way out with his buck in the back of the truck (on private property). This is definitely a day him or i won't soon forget.
Thx. Im gonna do a euro mount for him. I have a local buddy who does them. . He has a snow goose coming he shot last year as well, which he has no idea about. Cant wait to see his face.
Good happy times.:thumbup:
He must of been a happy camper driving that truck with his buck in the back. Good for you.
Ya, who wouldnt be, I am excited just thinking of doing that at my age :)Quote:
