When you trust your optics, your rifle, and have lots of practice at the range, a 150yd neck shot is a piece of cake. The one I posted a picture of was taken at 128yds, as confirmed by range finder. I had plenty of time (glassed him for over 20min) to make the decision. He was bedded down behind some downfalls. The only clean shot I had was a neck shot.  I have passed up shots on many nice 4pts due to the fact I did not have a clear shot, trees, etc.

Here is a pic of the exit wound.

Congrats! Nice deer. 

However, I would consider that a two point and would have never taken that deer.  I myself don't count eye guards when determining if it's a shooter.

some people may not consider it a trophy or a shooter in their eyes.
washington state considers it a shooter and in that case makes a great trophy for someone if they chose to take it.

congrats on your deer.

NICE BUCKS and Congrats on a successful season.  It's too bad your getting bombarded by the TWO POINT POLICE on here.  You'll really have to worry when they all show up at your door with their Hunt-washington hats on and tape measures in hand. :chuckle:

Friday is last day of season, and I'll be out trying to fill my West Side tag.  And you bet your sweet ass, the first legal buck is going to become meat in my freezer.

First of all congrads on your buck. We've hunted the Conconully are for awhile now and oh man there is some monster two points that body wise seem very mature. Some that don't even have eye guards. Again, congrads

Nice going Cruzer! That is a fine two point and definitely legal. I like to see these big mature two points taken as we do not need them spreading the two point gene anymore than they already are.

If I had a choice between someone taking a small young three or four point or a large mature legal two point I would choose the two point every time. Just my two cents

You're telling me at 150 yrds you saw that brow tine was over an inch long?  I bet you're the guy that shoots and asks questions later.  You got lucky
I've done a lot of hunting in my days my friend and I compete in 1,000yrds Benchrest through out the State and out, Believe me I wouldn't have taken the shot if I wasn't sure. Why don't you come up to eatonville for our 600yrds Benchrest competitions and I'll prove to you that at 150yrds set something thats 1 1/2" and put your money where your mouth, and see  if I can't tell that it is over an 1". You would'nt have taken the shot but that's you, you don't shoot at targets like I do at different ranges, guess you also don't believe that I can shoot a 6-7" ten shoot groups at 1000yrds either right? Since your a betting guy come to one of our matches.
