This is my nine year old's first year actually hunting and being able to shoot his own deer. He's sat with me quite a bit over the last few years but wasn't able to shoot anything until this year. I bought him a 243 this year and he took full advantage.

We hunted a few mornings and afternoons after work in the rain and passed on quite a few bucks as I'd seen several older, much larger 8 pointers. We actually passed on this one the night prior, but he was starting to get antsy, so I went ahead and let him pull the trigger.

He was super fired up, and made me extremely proud. Made a perfect shot, buck ran about 15 steps and dropped like a rock.

He got a good one for a first buck. Smile is almost the same width as the antlers. It's great to see kids having good times in the field. Congratulations to the young hunter.

Thanks guys. Really appreciate all the comments. He's a good kid, he works hard, does good in school, and is nice to others. Holds the door open for people and just does stuff that I don't see grown adults do nowadays. I'm very proud of him.
