Vicksburg On The Hunt

Nine-year-old Kate Shelton, above, killed her first deer while hunting with her father, Tim, at Warren County Hunting and Fishing Club on December 29, 2008. The 115 pound spike was shot with a .43 Winchester rifle from 50 yards. And below....

Kate's brother, Jack, bagged a 150-pound 8-pointer on January 18 with the same gun and at the same camp. Jack and Kate are the children of Tim and Torri Shelton.

Ernie Barlow shot this hugh 8-point buck on December 30 while hunting at the Mill Pond Hunting Club in Claiborne County. The deer weighted 200 pounds, had an 18-1/4 inch wide rack with a 23-inch beam, and scored 150 Boone & Crockett points. Barlow made the 90-yard shot with a 30.06. (My camp borders this camp and my stand is very close to the borderline and some of the hunters have been seeing a monster buck in the vicinity of the top field where my stand is...I wonder if this was the buck they saw!!)

Morgan rest, 11, shot her first deer on January 8 while hunting with her grandfather, Jessie Anderson, at Choctaw Hunting Club. The 7-pointer had a 16-1/2 inch main beam. Morgan made this 155-yard shot with a 7mm-08 rifle.

Eight-year-old Chelsea Myers killed this deer, her first, on January 11. She made the shot with a 7mm-08 while hunting on private land with her grandmother Brenda Shiers.

Ashton Allen, 10, shot this deer while hunting near Redwood with his uncle, Steve Bounds, Jr. Allen is the son of Nichole Allen and Clifton Smith. My congrats to all who hunted in our great wild outdoors!
