One thing i did with my daughter was print out pictures of antelope and have her shoot a .22 at them. At like 30 yards or so. That way it's a realistic sight picture of what she'll be shooting at, low impact as far as sound and recoil so she doesn't develop bad habits. With the adrenaline she won't even feel or hear the .243 in the moment. My 12 yr old made a 350 yard shot. She had only ever practiced with the big gun to 100 yards. I had the gun sighted in zeroed at 300 so all she had to was hold right on. You can do that for her. A solid rest really helps too. Then it's just finding and antelope you want to shoot! I'm a terrible judge of them so i just look for one that I fancy. I can't wait for you to post of pic of you and her with her antelope!
Great advice. I only wish i would have thought of this before I took her out there.One thing i did with my daughter was print out pictures of antelope and have her shoot a .22 at them.
