Father-daughter combo
Both father and daughter, Robert and Hannah Dean, scored on the same day during the youth season
The deer gun youth season was a winner for the Deans of Guthrie.
Not only did Robert Dean II get to see his daughter harvest her first deer, he also was rewarded by taking a 13-point buck with his bow in Logan County.
During last weekend’s special youth gun season, all of the youth hunters had to be accompanied by an adult who couldn’t hunt with a gun, but could with a bow since archery season is open.
Not long after Hannah Dean, a fifth grader at Guthrie Upper Elementary, shot a little 5-pointer, a 13-point buck wandered by for her dad, who had taken his bow along just in case.
Also passing along a photo of his son’s first deer was Zane Finton of Stillwater. His son, Braden, shot a 9-point, 196-pound buck south of Tonkawa on Sunday during the youth gun season.

Deer muzzleloader season opens Saturday and there’s been lots of deer movement in the state already.
Duck, sandhill crane season to open
Other hunting season openers Saturday include the opener in duck hunting zone one (northwest and north-central Oklahoma). With all of the recent rain, the duck season forecast is looking better and better.
“Already a good number of early migrants have been moving through, and the continued cold weather up north should keep pushing birds on down to us,” said Josh Richardson, migratory bird biologist for the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation.
Sandhill crane season also opens Saturday, west of I-35 only.
