Well it was a nice way to begin the new year for sure! I slipped back into a creek bottom this morning and setup well before daylight in hopes of bagging a doe with my pistol. I was there maybe 20 minutes when I seen one right at daybreak. It looked like a nice size nanny so I took aim and dropped the hammer. It was about a 65yard shot and from the tell tale kick, I connected. I watched as she ran about 25 yards and rolled up. (that 7-08 is a bad lil round )

I let her lay awhile and slipped out to check on her. As I walked up I was a little disappointed that it was instead a little spike. I am still very excited and its a trophy to me because its my first, but I really didnt want to shoot any little bucks on this property.It was just so early and I probably should have waited for a little more light. I was so pumped it was hard to hold back! I couldnt believe how hard it was to steady that handgun on just a doe. It felt like I had a bow in my hand I was so excited!!!

I will just get me a doe next time!

Either way it was a great day and I got some fresh meat on ice!!!

Here are a couple pics.
