She got a big doe last year and wanted to wait for a buck this year. A doe stepped out first, and she started to take it, but I told her that a buck might be following the doe. She decided to wait, and about 3 minuits went by before this buck showed himself. We had made several attempts, and had bucks and does in front of us every time except once. I could not get her into possition without getting busted. She can't hold the gun up herself, and get steady enough to shoot. I put bi-pods on the front, so she could lay on her belly and get steady enough to do it all herself. Last year and this year, she done it herself, without me touching the gun. The shot last year was 112 yards,(with laser range finder) and this buck was about 80 yards, with a perfect shoulder shot. He went straight down, as his legs buckled underneth him, without taking a step. She is 2 shots, 2 kills, 2 years running, with my Remington 700 243. Leupold 3.5-10x50.

THATS AWSOME!!!!!! Tell her Congrats. Great Job and a very well placed shot. Seeing how proud and excited she is reminds me of my first Buck. No better pictures in the world than that of a kids successful hunt. You should be proud as your daughter is showing she was taught well.

Great job young lady! My 9 year old son will be jealous. He said he was waiting on a buck this year but the pressure finally got to him and he took another doe.
