First Deer with Daughter
Gents, over the holidays had my first successful deer hunt with my little buddy. She went out with me a couple times last year, but we can't stay very long. This time we went out in TN with about 1.5 hours left. Slightly raining and we were in a ground blind, but nothing moving.
"Daddy, can I have the deer calls?"
"Honey, it's not really the time of year to call a lot," I said.
"Well, we haven't seen anything just sitting here," she said.
"Good point, here you go, knock yourself out."
"Grunt, bleat, grunt, bleat, grunt, bleat, grunt,bleat....it's like a buck and doe are talking to each other, daddy....grunt,bleat....."
Me: "Wait a minute, honey, hold on...I hear deer coming behind us."
She looked back and said, "I don't know about behind us, but there's 6 deer coming straight at us in the front."
"Oh, honey...those deer are 400 yards away, they won't come over this far.......wait.....ok, try that can call again....hey, I think they are coming....!
Stella said, "Told you."
"Hold your ears." Great time with the little one. Hope everyone had a good holiday. Brad

Congrats. Great story. Hard to find a deer hunt you'll never forget. Priceless stuff. I'm sure she won't forget it either. Cute kid. Thanks for sharing.

Yea and you will never hear the end of it either. Maybe she can call those slabs in also

Awesome hunt- and evidently some top notch calling!

Awesome! Hunting with a young child can be challenging at times but it is certainly worth it. Thanks for sharing!
