Kia took this one this weekend, using her dad's beowulf carbine which she chose because of the ergonomics and lack of perceived recoil [ according to her ]
going to be a rug in her bedroom and they say it has been good eating as well.
her dad's buddy also took a large black bear using a spear this weekend, a 'one shot ' kill also

Kid does better than I've ever done on bear. Congrats to her. But then again, her smile tells the story, doesn't it.

Great observation Blaine,
Every photo I have of friends and myself while hunting looks like we've slept in those clothes for a few nights. The only gal that ever hunted with us was my teenage granddaughter and she always looked neat and well kept. Of course she never gutted her deer because of all the willing volunteers.

Marlin - a hard habit to break.
Good job, and Beowulf's are COOL...! (journalists call them "50 caliber assault rifles" )
I doubt her finger is really on the trigger, but her short-little-kid fingers make it look that way; caution her to go out of her way to make it obvious to observers that she's off the trigger during photos.
Doctors for Sensible Gun Laws "first do no harm" - gun control LAWS lead to far more deaths than 'easy access' ever could.
here in Connecticut,you are limited to a 10 spear possession limit,atlatl's are altogether banned as prehistoric assault weapons,and slingshots are exempt from the ten ...ROUND... limit, as most rocks are not perfectly round, go figure...

How old is she? I may have to show this pic to my 10 yo nephew to psyche him up for a little shootin' (he already has a couple of .22's and a .410 --he just doesn't know it yet ---waiting for his momma to give it an OK )

Funny to think that a Beowulf killed the bear, as Beowulf is Old English for Bee Wolf, or Bear. The young lady killed a bear with a bear. Great picture.

yes, i like that aspect! hadn't thought of that!
she's going to get another using a winchester 1894 rifle from about 1906, that has been in the family since the 1920's.
i am loading some ammo for her for that adventure to come.
I'm beyond impressed......
