Great job!
If we were supposed to be vegetarian God would have made broccoli more fun to shoot!
"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

3250, around a 100 yd shot across a draw so kinda hard to estimate.  No further than a 100 though

Thanks for all the comments.  Never been a trophy hunter. Sure I could of chased the big buck but , he will keep me excited about next year. Any animal is a trophy in my book. When you outsmart them in there territory you have suceeded as a hunter!!

Come on Modern Elk!!! Im stoked already!!!

Congrats.  Are you sure you had enough gun for deer, 300 RUM?  You probably spread deer for 3 miles and still downed a distant tree with the residual kinetic energy.  :chuckle:

Good Job on a buck!!!! 300 RUM??????????? I'll never understand why people shoot those huge guns at deer??? Nothing wrong with it I just liked shooting 30-06 or 270 when I did rifle hunt.

On the flip side to that my dad hit his buck in the from shoulder this year with a 150 grain Acubond from a 30-06 and it looks worse than that. Good shot placement is key with any caliber or round.

.300 RUM is a hair gun.  If you see hair in the scope, something is getting blown up.  Slows animals down when large portions are MIA.   :o

I just am not a fan of getting jeu to kicked in the shoulder by an elephant and then see white flashes dancing around in my eyes.

My .300 is just the most cofortable rifle for me to shoot.  It fits me perfect. Have others but the .300 gets grabbed the most.  With the brake it kicks like a 270 at most..  Really fun to shoot, before the brake?? Uh it sucked!!

Over kill yes. But it works everytime
