My hunting partner

Post by hondo1892 »

Here is my daughter with her first deer. She was thirteen when she havested it with a .50 flinter. She has also taken a couple with a 64 Winchester. I'm gonna miss her when she leaves for collage.

I'll give that one a big old AMEN!!!!!

You are indeed blessed. If you act pitiful enough, maybe she'll come home to hunt with you once in a while. :D

Something tells me that she might come around during hunting season!

I would say that she will come home to hunt, and that any boy who wants to get to know her better be on the level. Girls who have that kind of raising seem to make the more decent type of people, and are good wife material. I have been around a few like that, and am basing it on personal experience.

Congrats! Hunting partners are hard to replace, but for some reason, I don't think you'll really ever replace that one!

Quite a girl. Fine kill , good looking rifle. Looks almost like the one my son owns. I think he got his from some where in Kentucky , not sure, but custom job . I barely can hold his up. He , the wife & kids are into this woods dress up, flint lock black powder group . Your girl looks very happy in that picture.

I would have to agree ... you are raising her right. The hard part is when they leave to go to college, or to work in the city, or get married. We have six kids, three are on their own, another leaves in the fall, and the youngest one has only a few years left. Perhaps you can talk her into joining you for a few days during hunting season.

You are indeed lucky. I hope I can interest my boy in hunting. I'm a bit worried at the moment, Jesse is 6 and is prepared to eat chicken legs and drum sticks because they are not from real chicken- won't eat anything that is..

I started taking her squirel hunting with me when she was two. By the time she was three she would make me tie a squirrel to a string and let drag it behind her like a deer. She would rather eat wild game than grocery store stock anyday of the week.

Here's a couple of more hunting photo's of my daughter. I took her on a Buffalo hunt for her fifteenth birthday. It was really bad conditions rained, froze and then snowed the two days before the hunt. So the guide told us it wouldn't be much of a hunt or the animal wouldn't be reteivable. It turned into a buffalo shoot instead. If I would have known it would be like that I would have made it for a different time of year. The deer were taken in november of the same year. Thats my dad in the photo with her.

Good on you Hondo! My daughter shoots but I never got her to go hunting. The two boys do though :)

Nothing like hunting with your kids - nothing like it all. ;)
