90-Year-Old Woman Bags 9-Point Buck
From Fox 11 News:
The 9-point buck would have made a fine buck tale on its own. But this story is made by the woman who bagged him, 90-year-old Delores Wilhelms of the town of Forest. . . .
"I've never seen one so big so close," she said. "I said oh my god, and you know you're supposed to be quiet...so I picked up my bow, aimed it, and bingo. . . .
“A lot of people say I'm crazy," she said. "You know what? I say if they're talking about me, at least they're leaving someone else alone. . . .
"I love it," she said.

With a bow...I wonder what the draw weight was. I hope at 90 (if i make it that long) I can still bow hunt. Way to go Delores!
That 90 year old lady has more life in her than most people . We encourage hunters to take a youth hunting , how about take a senior hunting ! What a great neighbor that lady is blessed with ! Kudos to the neighbor !
outstanding possibly the kill of the year
Crossbow. Seems that her love for the outdoors is keeping her young.
that's Outstanding.
Good for her. I hope she shoots many more.
That's awesome! I hope I can still draw a bow @ 90!
I need to call this woman and have her get my grandma squared away on a few things!
It just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Good for her, and congrats!
A whole new spin on that song "Gramma got Run Over by A ReinDeer"
iam glad a person of her age is still keeping the hunting tradition alive she is a icon for all of us who love to hunt and i hope she keeps on taking deer for up coming generations to see what kind of heart and determination to be a great sportsmen. congradulations i hope you take many more good luck!!!
i hope i'm still alive at 90 thats awsome,, and to be bow hunting on top of that a guy or a lady can only dream to be so lucky ....congrats !
Congratulations to you Delores Wilhelms for that wonderful 9 point buck and We are hoping you have many more to come my lady!!!

I have this mental image of Ruth Gordon as 'Ma' in the Clint Eastwood flick "Every Which Way But Loose"!
"Poor defenseless old lady...."
I have just turned 60 and I hope to be hunting when I am 90. Perhaps I will have a good neighbor to get me to the woods. to still be hunting at 90 is a blessing and i hope god bestows that blessing on me
