The Wife Takes Up Hunting
by Dan Fisher
2007 150 yds 1 Shot I got remarried and the wife and I wanted something we could do together so I started her hunting deer.. She has done pretty well so far.. She shoots a 260. Her first yr (2005) she got a 5 x 5 with a creek rack, 80 yards one shot quartering toward her. (it helped that we look at deer photos on the internet and she tells me where she would shoot each one) 2006 she took a young doe (not one shot like the rest) this yr she shot a 4 x 4 (some might call it a 5 x 4) at 150 yards one shot.. dropped 10 yards from impact.. Opening weekend the wife was on the same stand and did not see a deer, the second weekend she had 16 in front of her at one time, 7 of them were bucks (two were fighting) She was going to shoot a doe but had a miss fire. FYI we do not sit in the same stand. We own 160 acres that has been in my family for over 100 yrs. We pratice deer managment. Next year we will plant food plots.
