Taking my daughter hunting

[UC_Guy 1971]

I'm bringing a lever action. .357mag. For my daughter its going to be either a 5.56 or 7.62x39. Both are AR platforms. It will be interesting to see which way she leans.

This is for whitetail.

Is deer season open now? or just getting to know them before season starts?

probably in 4 months for youth depending on the state and area of it

Either the 357 or 7.62x30 geta my vote. I would lean towards the 7.62 suppressed.

Will this be her first time?

 

[Retired Bum]

You are being a fantastic dad. Good job, sir!

A 32 Winchester special...great brush gun...easy on the operator...plenty for whitetail.

The draw is happening. I'm hoping for a one, maybe two.

It is funny you say that. A friend just bought a pair of those. Lever-action models.

.357 lever gun is a great option

I wish y’all luck and hope she kills the biggest buck in the state. When my son was 4 he told me one Saturday he want to go bear hunting. I ask him which gun he was going to use he said mine Daddy. Which was a Chipmunk. We when bear hunting for about 2 hours. No bear but him being 4 he had the time of his life slipping through the woods looking for a bear.

I began to tear up reading this. One of my twin sons was stillborn in 1981, while the other died in my hands.

If only...

Gita young lady at church, who gagged a mulie last year. Announced by her proud father, with a 7/08. Thinking about giving her a rifle for bigger game. None of my kids have any interest in hunting, so why not. We need to be promoting hunting and outdoor skills.
