What Was your first deer shot with?

9 yrs old, Cooey Ranger 22LR, 20 feet. Got my backside tanned for shooting it, then congratulated by my father and uncles for my first deer and a clean kill. A few lessons learned that day to say the least, lol.
 
M17 Enfield, 30-06, shooting Dominion 180 grain Kling-Kor RNSP ammo.
Shot was about 90 yards, open sights.

I can still vividly remember how shaky I was, and how my heart felt like it
would jump right out of my chest.
It took more than one shot, but I managed to close the deal...big, fat muley doe.

Those are the fondest memories for me.
Seems like a lifetime ago, lol.

Regards, Dave.
