[QUOTE="GTN, post: 2956814, member: 72955"] Got to brag a little on my oldest . Jack my 8yo took this GA buck on Thanksgiving morning. We were watching a big clear cut and he spotted the deer at about 570yds coming out of a draw. He killed it @ 650yds when he got up on the side of the ridge with a Seekins 6.5prc, nightforce, 143eldx combo. He has shot rocks and steel out to 500yds but never shot an animal over about 100yds. He knows very well the importance of not rushing and making a good shot (another story) and I reminded him of that when he got behind the rifle. So with literally zero wind I ranged/dialed for him and said a little prayer. He was very patient waiting for him to turn perfectly broadside, he even asked if I was ready before he squeezed off and he made a perfect high shoulder shot. Deer ran about 40yds and piled up. Talk about one pumped up 8yo and a proud dad. It's the best deer he has killed. We are both thankful and blessed.[ATTACH type="full" alt="Snapchat-1095903842.jpg"]514573[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_20231125_235646_042.jpg"]514574[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
