Daughters first bear!!!!

[drgame]

Daughter got her first big game ever last night. We put an awesome stock on it. Had to be patient for the bear to clear rose bushes and to turn broadside. Once that all happened, she squeezed the trigger from her .243 and the bear dropped in his tracks. Perfect shot, just behind front shoulder and exited out opposite shoulder. Then I had one excited girl. I don't think I've ever seen her like this. Couldn't wipe her smile off her face. I was also proud. Not the biggest bear but size definately doesn't even matter. The bear had such cool colours though. Now she can't wait until the fall when she can go out again for moose or deer.

THAT'S JUST AWESOME- there's nothing like hunting with your kids and grandkids--unless it's hunting with your parents, which is getting to be a long time ago
