This is 8-year-old Conner Douglas Morgan (my
grandnephew). He took his first deer, 134-pounds (field-dressed weight)
8-pointer, on Nov. 12, 2005, while hunting with me on my farm in Crittenden
County, Ky. We were hunting from a box stand located in a fence row between
2-acre and a 3-acre food plots of Imperial Whitetail Clover and Alfa-Rack. He
made a perfect 25-yard double lung shot with a youth model .223 with a red dot
scope. Conner is the third youngster to get their first deer on this farm.
After bow hunting now for 40 years, my biggest thrill comes from seeing a
youngster bring home that first deer. Thanks to the Whitetail Institute for
products that make hunting an enjoyable adventure for young and old alike.
