Maybe not directly Appleseed related, but my girl was certainly practicing her AS skill set when she harvested this guy at about 100yds with an in-line .50 muzzleloader on the first day of Ohio's youth gun season. Quartering to shot that was just a fuzz high...got the shoulder, both lungs, aorta, and liver before exiting just behind the ribs. 
Hence it is, that democracies have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have, in general, been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths

SWEET!!!!
And with a 'smoke pole' at a hundred- way to go girl. I hunt with everything allowed, but the method I have put the most meat in the freezer is with blackpowder.
Keep up the good work.

If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget you were our countrymen.
Sam Adams

"Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force: Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined." -- Patrick Henry

One died for your soul, the other for your freedom-Unk

I will pass along all of your comments, and thanks to all of you. She dosn't get on here much anymore with all the stuff she has going on with school, piano, art, crosscountry, etc... so on and so forth. She is keeping her shooting skills honed tho  8)

Maybe I can get her to log on and read the thread   :)
Don't worry Julia, I'm sure they will  :D


I started the process of stripping the skull yesterday. Doing a European mount for her...hope to have it done in time to put it under the tree ;)

Congratulations!! My 10 year old daughter went out during youth season but no deer nearby.  I hope to get her to an Appleseed next year.

Para, Having your (or my) kid get a deer is better than any deer we could ever shoot. Congratulations to Harley....and you, for being a great Dad.

Nice job Harley!
"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government." — George Washington

"Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it." --Mark Twain (1835-1910)

"A constitution is not the act of a government, but of a people constituting a government; and government without a constitution is power without a right. All power exercised over a nation, must have some beginning. It must be either delegated, or assumed. There are not other sources. All delegated power is trust, and all assumed power is usurpation. Time does not alter the nature and quality of either." ~ Thomas Paine

What are you talking about?  Of course it's related!  That is taking the knowledge and applying it in the real world!  Congratulations to a wonderful shot and wonderful parents for taking her hunting!

No, our stand has a blind around the top, with a nice solid 2X4 rest all the way around. Shooting from an elevated position, seated, with a rest  ;)
