-- 2009 Successful Deer Hunters (http://forums.ukcdogs.com/showthread.php?threadid=303574)
My son Tommy's first deer
Wisconsin recently changed the hunting age. As young as 10 years old can hunt with a mentor as long as there is only one gun between the two of you and you are no farther than arms length from eachother while hunting. Kids that are being mentored do not have to have the hunters safety class and receive a license and tags for a discounted price.
Tommy is 10 years old. He's been deer hunting before but never got to pull the trigger. This weekend we were hunting the Youth Gun Deer Season which was just 10/10-10/11.
Tom and I hunted hard this weekend. It was COLD! We went up to Black River Falls for the weekend and hunted the Jackson County public forest with my cousin Chris and his daughter Clarissa. We got the camper set up back in the woods. I had a spot scouted out from a few weeks earlier. Tom and I went up there, about 600 yards behind our camp, and set up a ground blind on Friday afternoon.
We hunted Saturday morning and did not see anything. Wind was blowing hard and it was cold, between 25 and 35 degrees! Saturday night we had a doe get within 20 yards of us but were unable to get a shot. We also saw another doe right at the end of shooting time and were unable to gat a shot at her. Sunday morning it was cold but the wind was not blowing. We did not see anything Sunday morning, but it was a nice morning to be in the woods. We broke camp Sunday morning and got home around 2:00pm.
I gave Charlie Trecek, a friend of mine, a call when we got home to see if he had a spot we could go but no answer, so I left a message. Charlie called me back around 3:30 and said come on out and get Tom a deer. We were out there and on stand by 4:00 PM. At about 4:45 this doe came out of the woods about 225yards away in some brush. We watched her for about half an hour, while she slowly browsed her way to the edge of the hay field. Once she got out in the open she was around 100 yards away. Tommy was watching her through his scope and thought he could make the shot. I said "go ahead and drill her", reminding him to just squeeze the trigger and hold the crosshair on the deer after the shot. Tom let her have it and she buckled then ran about 20 yards and stopped in the hay field. I told tom to "hit her again" and he did. She winced again and went another 10 yards and stood there. "Hit her again" I said, and Tom shot again. This time she made it to a small brushy spot and went down. We could see her from where we were. I was watching her with my binoculars and she was not moving. We waited about 10 minutes and went down to get her. She was dead. Tom had hit her every time. The first shot was right through the heart and lungs. She was standing dead for the last two shots. Tom was as proud as could be. He even told me that, "this was more fun than playing World Of Warcraft on his computer!"
