Default Deer Trouble


My 12yo shot her first buck this year with a .22 - very close range,
perfect
shot, and he dropped where he was standing.

With hope and heart,
Kathleen


Tell her well done. :-)

I'm decent with a rifle (including my favorite .22), but I just don't
have the confidence to try something like that...

I don't like my food to suffer. I'm glad hers did not!
Where did she hit him?

She got him right behind the eye, a little 3 point. Tasty meat. She was
sad she didn't get the 11 point that she had been watching, but I am glad
for tender meat in the freezer.

I want to take some self defence /target practice lessons somewhere. I
think it would be good for both of us, without DH around.
With hope and heart,
Kathleen

PS. The ligustrum continues to thrive. DH mistakenly planted it about 6
months ago where I didn't want it, but I let him live and let it stay. I
look forward to it getting bigger and lush like the one the people down the
street have.
