Default Buckhorn Double drop

I have been shown how its done . My 11 yr old daughter got picked for buckhorn.
The first day we saw nothing . The second evening a 119 # pound doe walks out and like Carlos Hathcock she puts it where it need s to be , one shot one kill at 100 yds. Then came the last cold morning , little did we know what was in store for us . It was 27 that morning and we had not seen anything . I had just told her in 20 minutes we are getting down, we have to go pack and start our 4 hour drive back. She said "Dad I want a buck so bad ! Can we call ?". I really did not want to . I know the rut is from Christmas thru the first week of January after years of Bowhunting Tensas . But I pick up the grunt call and hit it 4 times then followed it with the Lil can. Put them down and sat back to relax . I turned to my left and out of the palmettos comes a big buck looking for the other deer ! I said Get Your Gun NOW ! A big bucks coming ! He got about 40 yds from the stand then went into the palmettos skirting the lane headed away . Soon I saw him again fixing to step out . I told her to get on the lane . He started walking across and I stopped him with the grunt , no coaching this time ! As soon as he stopped BAM ! She Hammered him! Thought it was an 8 pt , it all happened fast . Turned out to be a 220# 10 point !!! I can't describe the emotion man! ImageUploadedByTapatalk1355110125.729756.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1355110148.015683.jpg

Thanks guys ! Yes I was proud and she was beaming . All the guys in the campground were just going on and on giving her high fives , nuckles and taking a bunch of pictures . She said daddy " it felt like the paparazzi" She stills says almost daily "daddy I still can't believe my first buck was a 10pt"
And the kicker is she also got picked for Tensas ! So there is a chance she could take another big one .

I have helped with that in the past and its a blast with all those kids. There are 8 year olds to 15 year olds and everyone usually at least sees a deer in range. Good luck

back at you sniper, when is her hunt on tensas? we didn't have any luck on tensas the last two weekends, hopefully this cold weather will help, hopefully her hunt will be in the rut, then she(and you) should be in for a treat, some awesome deer come out of tensas, it is possible but hard to be a 10point especially for a first buck, good luck to you two
