Hey everyone,
I just wanted to chime in to let everyone know my 10 - yr - old son killed his first buck this afternoon. ( south Alabama) Only about 4" spike, but he and myself were just as proud as if it had been a B&C. Killed it with his custom model 88 Win chambered in 250-3000, and hit dead in the neck. Will post pics as soon as I figure out how.

You need to use an off-site hosting source like photobucket. I know you are proud and he is very happy, wish more Dads were teaching their son's to hunt! Well Done!

I have been able to post off my hard drive, too. Use the browse button on the lower left in the image upload screen.
BTW, HuntMaster
That is outstanding and I hope you have a life long hunter there. Good show! Edited by tahqua - January/03/2008 at 04:54 |

My pleasure!!
Does my wicked old heart good to see a young man take a serious interest in hunting. He's the future of the sport, after all.
