My wife of 46 years got home from volunteering for the local food bank yesterday afternoon and decided she wanted to go hunting. We took a short jaunt down to the pasture gate and walked in to the blind. Fifteen minutes later we are loading her nice doe on the truck. She loves the 6.8 SPC I built for her with the 18" spiral flute ARP barrel and has taken several deer with it so far. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/11/full-26239-322998-roedoe.jpg)

46 years! Did you marry her when she was 4 years old?  Congrats on the deer. The purple furniture on the 6.8 is a nice touch too.
Silver spurs and gold tequila
keep me hanging on.
Pretty girls and old cantinas
give me shelter from the storm.
