Not where I'd like to be

Junior scored this weekend on a SD mentored tag, which is what the ND youth tag should be. The season runs from the beginning of September to the end of December.

I don't know which one of us was more excited. I know my heart was pounding as I watched through the binos, waiting for her to turn broadside and give the go-ahead. He made a perfect double-lung shot at 206 yards. That may sound a bit far for a kid, but he's been banging steel from every position this summer from that range and further.

I'm still impressed with the 85 TSX out of the 6 Grendel (basically a 6mm ARC before it existed). It doesn't flatten deer, but they don't go far. The bullet is somewhere in the hillside, but the lungs were pretty much soup.

My 11 year old son filled his ND youth doe tag on the last day of the youth season after many failed attempts(learning moments hopefully) Put it right in the sweet spot at 200ish yards with dads 6.5cm. Pretty special moment these kids get at such a young age.
