The tail gate got a little bloodier this evening! We rolled into one of our favorite spots at 3:45 at 3:58 they had 2 down! I had not even got to my stand yet! I knew by the sound of the first shot it was the .44 rem mag barking,less then 30 seconds later the 980 Ultra barks.I thought dang, she messed up and brother had to finish it off!Not to worry as the phone soon rang with the good news! It seems they were just getting ready to deploy the ground blind and "Q" spotted two coming down off of the ridge.He set up the shooting sticks real quick for his sister and she dropped to 1 knee and made good on all of the practice and dropped her in her tracks...and "Q" dropped her baby! ;D Shania was shooting the 225 grn FTX. Initially I was concerned about performance but it worked extremely well at approx.1700-1750 fps.This was her first shot under pressure and she handled it very well!

What can I say? It gives me a good feeling to see these young adults as a team. I know they are busy with a dozen other things but what they are sharing on these hunts makes me feel a kin to them. Ben
