Title: 2022 youth hunt Buck
Post by: DXT on October 09, 2022, 09:47:42 PM

My daughter got her first deer this evening! We saw this buck working his way through, told her to get ready, and when it gets in the clear I will stop it. I let out a few loud mouth grunts, and he finally stopped on my third loud mouth grunt, I had my binoculars up, and she said she was going to shoot, we both saw him mule kick, and do the death run, we both knew immediately she hit him good! We gathered our gear, walked to the spot , and we looked for 20 minutes, we couldn’t find any blood, no hair, and the vegetation on the ground made it hard to find any tracks. We were going to run out of daylight so we decided to just go the direction it ran, sure enough he only went around 50 yard and piled up. The shot was around 100 yards, with her .243 , and she hit it through the front shoulder and destroyed its ❤️ heart, the bullet was lodged in the far side under the skin, that explains the lack of blood. It was a great hunt, and a nice big buck weighing in at 163.2 # dressed, with a slight second white patch on his neck, 6 points probably 14- 15 inch spread, im guessing a 3.5 year old. Im so proud of her!!!
