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
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

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.

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

The 100 grain is what I used also. Congrats!!!

He looks angry. Did you shoot him in self defense?

I’d be upset too if 185 grains stopped me from getting some tail that was right in front of me 😂

My son was able to get in done today. Was absolutely pouring down rain the whole time but he decided he wanted to hike in to his favorite spot. This guy jumped out right in front of us at about 25yrds and my sons shot him with his 7mm-08 freehand right in the brisket. Piled up right there and we got the fun quartering and pack out while taking a shower. His 3rd deer in this spot in the last 4 yrs. All within about a mile of each other. Congrats to all others in here especially the youth hunters!!!
