My daughter knocked down her first deer this morning, hunting at a camp that her husband's family has hunted for years. The deer was taken early this morning from a box stand. at approximately 200 yards. A nice little meat doe weighing 115 lbs. That's a pretty standard doe for this area.
The rifle is a Ruger American in .308 Winchester, with a Leupold scope. The ammo is unknown, but I gave her a bunch of handlooads last year.
Super proud of my sister!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your daughter! One's first deer is always special. Good job!
ReplyDeleteWoo hoo! Meat for the freezer!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. Its November and family packs of tamales are needed for meals and distribution. This weekend is Texas South Zone opening day for deer too. No deer here,but consider the equivalent as far as meat value goes.
ReplyDeleteHmm - weird. Sentence should be "No deer here, but I took a feral hog, which I consider the equivalent as far as meat value goes."
