Daughter's First Mule Deer

Third year of trying was the charm for my 13yr old Daughter. Opening morning general tag Idaho. Spotted this buck feeding at first light. Made the stalk as close as we could get. Could not get her prone (angle and brush interfered), so ranged, dialed (perfect conditions 1-2mph wind) and got her set up sitting with her bi-pod. Backpack upright for a rear rest. She made the 368yd shot with her .224 Vlk. I am one super proud Dad! Not only was her first buck way bigger than mine, the shot was about 300yds further!
Congratulations to both of you, great job Dad.
