My nine year old grandson has a busy schedule with most all sports taking up his time and finally made his second hunting trip to our place in Madison County. The youth season ends tomorrow but he was able to take the doe this afternoon with the.243 that he got for his birthday. I’m pretty proud of him. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/01/full-12354-377297-417e433c_3876_45ea_94a1_654f11e59166.jpeg)

That’s awesome. I suspect decades later he’ll remember every moment of taking his first deer with you but the seemingly important sporting events from the past few months will be a faded blur at best. Well done.

Good job young man. Hopefully many more to come.

I told him we would try harder to get him some horns next year. He’s still excited about his first deer though.

That looks to be a mighty good Doe as well. Congratulations are in order for the Lad and for YOU as well....putting it all together and making it happen. As adults we sometimes forget what such an experience is like through the eyes of child. Its a BIG deal to them and the smile on his face confirms as much. ![up up](/forum/images/graemlins/default/cup.gif)

He was tasked to write a poem about anything he wanted and he chose to write it about the hunt. We are very proud of him! Here goes…
We wake before the sun comes up, My Dad and I to go on a hunt. It's cold outside, the leaves are crisp, They crunch under our feet with Dad in front.
The sun comes up, it's a windy day. The cows in the field are eating away. We were up in the stand so high, I feel like I could reach the sky.
We were dressed in camo head to toe. So that doe out there would not know. With the pull of a trigger, there was a bang. Holy moly Dad, I got that thang!
😂🤣
Jacob had to write a poem about anything he wanted. He wanted to do it about hunting.
