12 Year Old Daughter's First Elk
« on: Nov 04, 2010, 02:16:12 PM »

My daughter, Ally, shot her first elk today.

I took her out of school for a few hours and she shot this nice cow with a .280 Remington at about 100 yards.

She's been hunting hard and really earned this one.

Of course Dad is really proud of her and she made a great shot!

Congratulations Ally, That smile say's it all. I'm guessing Dad's very proud too.
