Found this guy chasing a doe and spike. Tarsals and neck fully activated. Finally got to break in the savage .243! 100gr federal power shock and he got about 60 yards before piling up. Day 14 of the season for me
In this family we aim for the game, we wear camo, we respect our rifles, we pray before meals, we lock and load and we never miss

Great mass on that buck!

Thanks everyone! It has been a blessing!I never expected to shoot a buck like this. Let alone on public land. Been seeing a lot of pressure since the start and did not see much activity until this last weekend. Grateful for all the people that helped make it happen! Taxidermist said it’s a phenomenal buck hope to take it down to the sportsman’s show and get it scored

Hell yeah, congrats!  Great lookin buck, looks to have a giant body on him too.  Can’t complain about any of that.

My daughter's 2nd buck.  She had very limited time because of volleyball and still passed on 3 small spikes before deciding this one would do on Sunday.  60 yards freehand shot, dumped him.
