Sharing my daughter's success

[Tundra Tiger]

She is actually a tiny little thing. She says she's 5'; I think that's debatable.

She has a cast iron shoulder; she can accurately shoot hotter loads from my .45-70. She says she doesn't feel much in the way of difference from the .243 to the .308.

Good stuff! Big ol head on that bear!

 

[cagkt3]

Wow!! That is awesome! Congrats to you both

She looks like a sweet kid and is obviously the apple of your eye.

I promise I won't bore you folks forever with photos...

I got the skull out. A preliminary measurement comes out at 26.5"; the teeth leads me to believe he didn't have a lot of years left. I have not measured the hide yet but expect it's going to exceed 8 feet.

I probably speak for everybody when I say that you don't need to worry at all about boring us!

 

[Mort Hill]

Looks like an ancient old boar and a wonderful trophy indeed. Congrats to your daughter, all 5’ +|-!

 

[Milo]

Congratulations. Crazy that bear was out and about this early with all the snow this year.
and caribou meat for the freezer!

Very nice work. I love seeing kids get into hunting.

Mind telling us more about the shot placement and bullet path/performance on the bear? I have a 375 Ruger for serious bear hunting but I will probably start carrying my suppressed 308 for caribou plus kids use it. So there is a possibility that we'd want to shoot a grizzly with a 308.

Awesome! Congrats!

 

[John Camp]

WOW. Please convey my congratulations. What a smile. That just made my day.

[BRICKBURN]

That set of dentures looks like he chewed his way out of a jail before your daughter stopped his final escape.
wow.

 

[JES Adventures]

Fantastic. I can't wait till my own daughter is old enough to join me on a hunt.
