Oh well, looks like he snapped off a couple tines scrapping it out there, but I'm counting them anyway. The smile on my grandson's face tells it all. He was shaking so hard after the shot, he asked me, "Papa, does this happen to you after you shoot a deer?" I had to explain to him the physics of buck fever...and adrenalin. Take a boy hunting! It was he who reminded me to mark his cheeks with some blood for his first kill. Umgawa!

Gentlemen, thanks for your kind replies. I have to admit, I get kind of... emotional...every time I look at these photos.

Gentlemen, thanks for your kind replies. I have to admit, I get kind of... emotional...every time I look at these photos. I would too. 40-50 years from now, he can show that photo and tell the story to your G grand-kids, sure he will get emotional too, that's family history and legacy.

Great deer, great memories.
Nice job!
We kept it as a pet for several months until it got run over by a truck. Then we ate him.
