My 10yr Old Is Ready

I took my 10yr old son (11 very soon) out the other day to get ready for Iowa's Youth Season on Sept. 20th. This is his 3rd year hunting, he shot a doe the 1st yr but was unable to connect last yr. We started off with the .22 to warm up and go over a few items before firing off the TC Impact 50 cal. He really enjoys shooting the .22 and it shows, he is a good shot.

After plinking for a while, I loaded up the Impact with 60grs of BH209 and a Barnes 250gr TMZ. He took out the center of the bullseye at 30yds.

I brought along a 2/3 size deer target for him to shoot at for shot placement practice. I moved it out to 50yds and let him have at it.

One dead deer target



We are getting low on our deer burger/steaks so the whole family is anxious for the season to start. We bought some beef steaks while on vacation a few weeks back and ,any more, beef just can't hold a candle to our deer steaks.

You had better look out. He just may out shoot ya :yeah:

Ray............. :wink:

That's great! I Wish Him The Best Of luck.

very good shooting and best of luck to you both this season.

You better have the hunting knife sharpen up good luck post some pictures !
