LAST EDITED ON Nov-05-04 AT 00:47AM (MST)[p] Boy am I excited! Managed to get access on some private property today just 10 minutes from our house and it paid off. My wife wasnt as excited as I was but we got her 1st deer! She wanted to shoot 1 of the bigger bucks but they were on different properties and who knows when they would be back so I convinced her to shoot this little guy. 75 yard shot, ruger m77 .308 165 grain Hornady soft point (factory). And she did it 5 months pregnant (expecting our 1st boy)!!!! Our 2 girls were very excited to see the deer. My 4 1/2 year old said "good job mommy you shot a deer"!

That stories funny. Your wife wanted to hold out for the bigger ones and you are telling her to shoot. She has the makings of a true trophy hunter.

Congrats to her.

I guarantee she'll be looking for that wallhanger next year! Conrats on a great hunt.
 
Tell her congratulations. My wife got her first elk this year, it was an awesome experience as I bet this was for you.
 
Great story! Congratulations. My wife ate a lot of venison when she was pregnant. Her doctor highly approved!

jeff,

awesome job! congrats to your wife.

i totally understand the high you are feeling right now...i guided my wife into her first big game antelope last weekend; a 10.5 inch lope. we had a blast and she did an awesome job with one shot thru the heart...she's gonna pick up the polish sausage tonight as a matter of fact.

now if she'll just keep the fever going and pursue deer like your wife...
 
c6....sorry i took so long, i totally missed this post...congratulations to your wife, and you...she looks like she's trying to smile through the cold. good buck, hope the sausage turned out...
