Congrat to both of you! I know you shooting a bird is a minimal deal but it will be a great memory for him to have for the rest of his life. Cherish every minute, they grow up too fast!
Hey Falcon, I have lots of experience with hunting daughters. Mine are grown and married now and one is expecting her first child in Sept. - With that said my vote is to take your daughter on any hunt or for that matter any vacation that you can while you can and as soon as you can. Time goes by...
yep, looking at easier terrain for the wife and one daughter. They also will be satisfied with a mediocre 4 pt. We can camp in our camper or hard sided fishshack. Although the youngest daughter would love hotel lodging on a hunt, thats not necessary. Thanks for the replies guys!
Yep, that's what I usually do. The girls get tags in WY and SD and occasionally other states and I just go along. We don't have to burn all 11 points, if I find a good enough area that I like that is a 5 point unit I'm ok with that too, wasting a few points isn't a big deal. Lots of research...
My personal theory is that we aren't getting any younger and wyoming keeps requiring us to buy points or loose them while raising tag prices and cutting tags. It's time for me to go enjoy a hunt and get out of their game. I also think all of us waiting for populations to come back is going to...

oh ya, we do that often. Last year I did an elk hunt with both of them. It didn't turn out well, we learned the one daughters limitations and only scouted two days and hunted one day but we still had a memorable trip together. The good thing is daughter 1 will go along when daughter 2 has a tag...
Probably a not so common "problem". Yes, I know I shouldn't have accrued so many points and gotten into what many call "no-man's land". Here's the deal, 4 of us have 11 points each for WY deer. Wife and one daughter want nothing to do with a high country excruciating deer hunt. They love...
As Larry Potterfield says,...Only accurate rifles are interesting. I wouldn't care what it looked like, give me the one you think will be the most accurate out of the gate. I bought a pretty high priced stock gun thinking it would be more accurate. It was not. A chit ton of ammo later and a...
