    Awesome youth hunt weekend.


    My daughter, 10, and her cousin, 10, both were able to have successful hunts Saturday for the Missouri youth season. My daughter used my AR-15 with 64 grain Nosler partitions. 95 yards and she dropped it in its tracks. I could not believe the performance of the bullet. Deer was 1/4 towards her and the shot went in about 6" back from the shoulder and blew a 3' hole at the last rib on the opposite side.

    The cousin dropped his with his father's 30-30 lever action. He insisted on using the 30-30 since his father was a Missouri Highway Patrolman killed in the line on duty in 2005. What a great weekend. Very proud of these kids.

    Too cool! Sorry to ear about your nephew's dad, but it sounds like his dad has a lot to be proud of. And good family support as well. Great day, huh?!

    Thanks guys it was great. Correction on the bullet used, it was a 64 Nosler bonded performance bullet.

    Just something about kids in the field seems to make hunting even more special. Thanks for passing it on.
    A good wife and a steady job has ruined many a great hunter.

    Looks like a good hunt.
    It's great to see the young people out there, carrying on the tradition. They are the future of the sport. I hope they stay with it, and bring others in, also.
