Congrats on your first? Are you planning to gut him out? (just kidding)
Con grads on your first buck. Hope its the first of many. Ok that be said WOW where do I start. 1st. 300 yards and you hold a foot over vitals and hit in low in dirt? That's over 4 ft of drop. Either you seriously mis judged range or you need to visit range and re sight weapon. 2nd. Way over confidence level. Why risk wounding and losing an animal if not confident in ability to cleanly kill at that range. 3rd. Faceing away and you shoot at neck at that kinda distance. Again huge factor for wounded and lost animal. Ok now 4. "God I hope he's legal" if not sure why did you shoot. Sorry if I'v offended but I cringed as I read your post. Hope I'v given you some things to think about. Hope this doesn't sound like rantings of crazy man. But just had to be said
