Montana youth Deer 2014

[300stw]

Spent lots of time looking for deer and antelope last couple days,,

seen 35 or 40 mulie bucks, couple bigger, quite a few same size and some smaller ones,,
probably seen 300 mulies last couple days,,,

anyway, son gets itchy finger after looking these bucks over and making 6 or 7 long stalks,

probably 1.5 miles were watching group of 5 bucks, there about 351 yards , this buck is broadside ,, my son says hes gonna take him,, about then a golden eagle dive bombs the deer, pretty close to grabbing one of them, pretty cool,

we regroup move a little, set up at 345 yards and he sends a bullet from his 7 mag, 15 yards the buck goes and tips over,, 168 berger classic complete pass thru, pic is of exit hole

he bones the deer out and away we go, tremendous day to watch this 13 yr old kid show some restraint, make a great shot, and bone out his own deer, hes ready for cow elk next week,,,

Great to see the young man get er done! Congrats to you both! That kid looks like he could have thrown that buck over his shoulder and hiked back to the truck. He'll make a great packer for you for many years to come

Congrats! Sounds like you're bringing him up right.

nice job, now maybe he'll do it for you when you;re old and feeble. That's my plan at least

Great Job! The Montana youth deer season is a great tradition, glad folks are taking advantage of it!

Congrats on the buck & time spent in the field with your son. FWP hit a homerun when they got this youth season started! We too were able to spend some time in the field and find success.
