Renee's first deer.

[EX#996]

She's been hunting with her dad since she was 8 years old.  This past year she went through the hunter's safety course, helped her dad build a new blind to hold the both of them with guns, and practiced her shot.  Well she got her first deer with her 870 Express 12ga.



The old blind is on the right, the new one on the left.



It was a good Thanksgiving morning.

P.S.  Renee took one shot at 135 yards and it went through the top of the heart and took out both lungs.  She did good!

 Very cool!!!    135 yards?  I can't even see that far with a scope!  LOL!

She's a beaut!  And the deer isn't bad either! 

[K3 Chris Onwiler]

YES!  Teach my niece to kill swiftly and without remorse!  I want all those teenage boys to SHUDDER IN FEAR when Renee walks by!

            

Nice Job Renee!  Oh, and I like the new Timing and Scoring tower!

[K3 Chris Onwiler]

WOW!  Looking at them on the tailgate of the truck together, Renee is as tall as Paul now!
They grow up so fast!

[EX#996]

Not quite at tall as Paul, she is only 5'9".   Dad needs a little help with posture.


That new timing tower - Paul says that's where you're staying when you come upl

Damn it!  you beat me to it...

Do send our congratulations to her.  135 yards with a 12ga slug is VERY impressive...  I seriously doubt that I'd even attempt that shot let alone make it...

[spyderchick]

Has Renee considered competitive shooting?
