Hunt Story

My 6-year-old son and I walked to my box stand and climbed the ladder and got settled in. I sent my husband a text in stand. Minutes later the buck can in through some thick brush and walked down to the feeder, which is about 40/50 yards in front of the stand. Sent hubby back a text that said buck. He replied 4 on one side, and I replied yes. He sent back if you want him take him. So I pulled the gun up got on him, had to wait for him to take a step forward. Told my son to plug his ears, took a deep breath, counted to 3, and squeezed the trigger. He dropped where he stood. Sent hubby a text that he dropped and did all kinds of celebrating with my lil boy. Waited about 5 minutes and got down and walked to him. It was everything and more that I though it would be. And it's my very first buck.
