Thread: Shes my hero

My 9yo really earned this one. She has been studying up on deer anatomy and has showed awesome discipline behind the trigger.

After sitting patently behind the rifle on a red at 95 yards for over 5 minutes while busting to go toilet it walked off without presenting a clean shot. She was stoked just to have watched the deer. Shortly after she was rewarded when we snuck up on a mob and she pulled off a perfect shot at 130 yards with the little red dot. @Wingman I believe this is one of your creations. Goes well thanks @Tommy for the loan. Big thanks to @Pongo12 for being the generous bloke he is!

Huhu grubs for supper before an early start


Done herself and her dad proud

That's a feeling that just can't get any better, watching your kids be successful like that. Wicked.

Yeah mate what a buzz!

Well done!!
Bloody awesome - For both.

What a great dad you are!

My cousin shot a couple of pigs when she was nine - thirty years ago. Fast forward to last year and her own ten year old son announces boastfully that he is going pig hunting with a school friend and the friends father. He just about collapsed deflated when his mum replied that she had actually shot a couple of pigs when she was nine and produced a photo to prove it.
We cant foretell the future, but perhaps this story will have a sequel in thirty years Gibo ?

A little cuttie. Well done

Mate that is fantastic. Anyone can pull a trigger but teaching your young one the discipline of waiting for the right shot is where you (and her) have really succeeded.

Good work best dad moment out there just had mine this year absolute best feeling out there

Good stuff mate!
If she gets the bug give me a yell and I'll make a shorter LOP stock for her and a cheek rest.. she clearly gets better use out of it than @Tommy

Yeah im thinking adjustable may be the go, fit them as they grow

I hope that your daughter enjoys cooking and can enjoy the satisfaction and pride from cooking some meals from her own deer for the family, perhaps a little young yet but a nice thought for the future

She is a full meat eater and enjoys helping in the kitchen

Well done. It's great if the kids share your interest.
What's the rifle/chassis setup? Looks light.

I will let @Wingman explain it i think there is a thread in here with details
