16yo from Boston. Doesn't get to hunt much. Had a stud slip by opening morning right at legal shooting light, he couldn't find him in the scope at 70y.
Hunted hard all weekend, had to catch a flight back at 8p, but we managed a final hunt yesterday pm.
Buck with a doe come out, we maneuver into shooting position prone and I set him on the gun. He breathes a few times, shoots, BAM. Buck still standing, doe hits the ground!
"You shot the wrong deer!" I say... "$HIT" he says (I've never heard this kid cuss). Buck runs off, comes back, runs off, comes back, turns broadside, and BAM, drops him on top of his dead doe.
Load em up, he gets a ride to the airport, and leaves me to skin and quarter 2 deer... ugh. The things we do for family!
Love the kid tho.. its amazing a kid raised in Boston loves land and hunting so much!

That's pretty funny, but it happens. Congratulations to him.
