Okay, so more of the story quick before I lose my laptop again...

My boys have multiple tags filled over the years, all with archery equipment. I was beginning to think Katie might never get her first... Katie is a senior this year and in a hybrid school schedule. Half the week at school in-person and half at home in a live zoom with the teachers in school(with the other half of the students there).

Last Tuesday, during Econ class, we noticed a deer in the back yard (during the heavy snowfall). She turned her volume all the way up on the laptop while I got her bow out. We slipped into the garage and I watched out the window to let her know when to slowly open the door. We got the door open and she stepped out in the snow (in her pj's and socks). The results show in the picture. It turned out to be a button buck instead of the small 1.5 year old doe we had been seeing but, that's okay. It's a good thing I watched it fall down. The snow completely filled in the tracks by the time lunchbreak came and we could go drag it home.

Very cool and congrats to you both! Be even cooler if that camo was her PJ's.

She had the PJ's on under the camo bibs and jacket. We have two antlerless deer in the freezer now so, I can hold out a little longer for a bigish buck. Maybe... I really like backstraps. Who knows what will happen if a nice fat doe gives me a shot...
