My daughter has helped me with food plots and trailcams the last several years and this summer began saying she would like to shoot a buck.

I took her afield opening day and we sat over a small plot we had put in that is within 100 yds of a bedding area.

A 1 point walked in early and milled about before moving on and at 6:53pm this 8 stepped into the plot. My kiddo executed a perfect shot minutes later and the buck fell 35 yds past the edge of the plot.

Seeing her excitement post shot was worth more than words can describe. I believe she’ll be hunter for life and look forward to our future sits together!

Best of luck to everyone across Michigan this season!
