This is Sam's first season hunting deer. Sam, Toby a I went hunting all day Saturday. We saw a couple of does and one huge buck but did not get a deer. Today, I picked Sam up after school. We set up on an Alfalfa field where the deer are feeding. Only ten minutes after getting in the blind a doe stepped out at a little over 100 yards. She gave us several opportunities but we decided that Sam would wait for a closer shot. Soon a deer stepped out into the field at 35 yards. Sam made a perfect shot and harvested his first deer. Nebraska allows the kids a bonus antlerless tag so he used that and still hopes for a buck. The deer ran about 60 yards after the shot. Sam drug it back to the field by himself.

Congratulations, Sam! What a great memory! She looks like a big doe... the more dinners to remember it by!
Congratulations, Sam! I think you may have beaten everybody's record of getting a deer on your 2nd trip!
