Quentin,AKA Lil-Tar,Table Looter, has drawn first blood with his Sav. this evening. A 70 yd. off hand shot on a big mature Indiana doe. She will probally field dress around 140-150 lbs. The 300 grn.XTP took out both shoulders and dropped her in her tracks. Upon hearing him shoot, I climbed down and went to him. You could see the grin on his face from a long ways out! This makes his 4th deer of the season, he is still working on getting his buck.Now, if I can instill in him to keep his finger of that trigger long enough, he just might get that buck! :lol: He is having a blast!
12 yr. old draws first blood

Well you said I'd be the first to know, thanks for the phone call!
I guess you might as well stick a fork in Quentin cause he's done now. :lol: He'll be hooked for life. You know what they say tho hunt with your kid and you won't be huntin for your kid. :yeah:I will post pictures as soon as I figure out how to do it. I might have to send them to one of you guys to post for me,I will see how it goes. Darrell, the first thing out of his mouth was that he had to call you to let you know! :lol: It is a special thing when your kids are successful in the woods. It does not happen overnite.Started him out shooting when he was 5 yrs. old. He shoots better than some adults :lol: Its great to watch him mature as a young man and hunter.Very special times :wink:

Re: Congrats to your son!
Head Hunter, He killed his first deer when he was 9 yrs. old, a doe that weighed 157 field dressed! Since that first one he has harvested 9 deer, 7 does and 2 bucks,the first buck scored 149/3/8 ! The second one was 120 or so. I will post pictures of that first buck. He shows a lot of restraint for 12 yrs. old, he has let 4 bucks walk so far this year.We have one day left. After our conversation last nite,I feel that anything with Antlers will be in trouble today! :lol: He has been doing a lot of second guessing,I told him he has done the right thing. They will be bigger next year!Head Hunter said:
