Wow. Good job.
I remember being her age and going on a hunt with my dad, but I wasn't allowed to have a gun or hunt. I was just supposed to watch and learn. Lucky kid.
:hatsoff:

I went to school with a young lady who went hunting with her mother every year. She was about 10 when she got her first deer. The other boys and I had much to say about it. Hunting was for boys. As I recall her dad never her took her out. As we got into our teens and this girl was comming of age her being a better shot then most of us didnt seem to matter asmuch :wink:
However I still dont know too many ladies tha do. I've taken my wife in to the tall timber a few times, after about 20 min shes had enough, she will help butcher however.

Cynthia,
This wasn't her first time hunting or sitting and learning. Last year she asked me to take her hunting because her parents don't hunt. She went several times and we only got a glimpse of a deer twice.

She attended a week-long outdoors summer camp with other kids her age and learned to shoot bows, rifles, shotguns, and muzzleloaders. One of her cabin-mates was younger and smaller than her and she was a "pro." She had already killed a deer at age 8.

They gave safety instruction and a mock hunter safety course and test.

I didn't know how she would react after seeing the dead deer and helping to clean it but she made it through just fine.
