A buck that was way too predictable

My daughter Kenzi was successful on a 13 point whitetail on our 80 acres here in Oklahoma on Dec. 1. I had watched this buck off and on during the fall, and the week before she got him, he had a regular pattern of traveling through morning and evening with the exception of one evening.

We planned on meeting up with him Thursday evening with a nice slow drizzle coming down while we were in the blind. 9 does and fawns fed as the advance party, and we had high hopes. That was until the toad strangling downpour unleashed, and the deer called it a day and ran for timber.

He came through Friday morning; when I whisper good, thar means I am on target and Kenzi and mom take over. Mom helps Kenzi with the vacuum air tube and safety. Kenzi sucked on the Be Adaptive vacuum air trigger and the .30-06 was true. Kenzi made a follow-up shot when he went about 20 yards and stopped.

She asked me when I am taking him to the food pantry (our freezers are packed). It does her self-worth great good by physically being able to help someone. She wants to make sure she is with me for that feeling of knowing she is helping community members.

If you haven’t already, put this on the whitetail photo contest thread:

The smile is worth a thousand “thumbs up”. Well done!
