Connor's Deer


It's always great to see someone younger than 40 in the woods with a big smile on their face. Here's the story behind Connor's buck.-Jake

In Nov. 2008 I introduced my 10 yr. old son Connor to whitetail hunting and wanted to share a photo. Info about the hunt:

Hunter: Connor Ritter
Age: 10 yrs. old
Date: Nov. 14, 2008
State: Texas
Location: Hill Country near town of Harper
Caliber: .243 single shot rifle

This deer past by our blind so early we could not make out how many points it had. We were guest on a friends lease and the lease had a eight point or better rule so we could not shoot. After there was better light, a doe passed our blind and this buck was following her. I asked my son if he would like to take the deer and his face lit up with excitement. He picked up his rifle, rested it on the window frame, cocked the hammer back, and with a gentle squeeze of the trigger his prayer was answered with a nice eight point buck (his first deer) lying in the grass. It is this hunt with my son I will remember for the rest of my days on this earth!
