Decent white tail down from 2012; updated with mount pics

[stormin85]

shot him last monday morning, almost passed on him, but let it fly and he went about fifteen yards.

not sure how big he is, but he is the biggest deer i have shot rack wise, my buck last year weighed more but didn't have as big of a rack.

let me know what you think, its the first deer i am getting mounted so pretty excited about that.

i will get some more pics put up, but this was the best of what he looked like from the front, i am really bad at taking pics in the field so hopefully ifi get an elk i'll do a better job.

Great first buck!  Great buck period.

yeah when i first saw him he didn't look as big as he was, so i was going to wait and see if any other deer got up, but then my hunting partner said he was bigger than i thought, so i centered the pin and let it go, made the best shot i have yet, right behind the shoulder, took the lung top of the heart and a part of the other lung, i cant get the pic to upload but it was perfect placement.

this was my second bow buck, last year was first, my goal has been to shoot a mature buck each year, he looked ittle young, maybe three ish? but i am not great at judging age on deer. still really happy with him, and that fact that his eye guards are bladed. thats something i have always hoped for.

Nice job, I wouldnt have passed on him. Will be a great deer to mount

[stormin85]

yeah when i get the mount back i will get better pics up of him, i am excited about the mount it will be the first deer i have ever had done, all my others were just antlers or euro mounts i did myself.
