Thanks guys, yea I think everyone is all wrapped up in the new age of camo, scent away , the new biggest best rifle they can buy. This guy was taken in jeans a t shirt and a good ole trusty 30 30. I like all the new stuff don't get me wrong but this year I went back to basics and it seemed to work

If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

Nice Buck, I concur with some of the others on the page that score does not matter, he is a beaut. Is that a Marlin you are shooting? I am considering buying a lever action for a brush gun but cannot decide between the Marlin or the Henry. Regardless it will be a 30-30.
Respectfully, Don

Sorry ljm1013,
I should have read all the posts first. I figured that was a Marlin.

Thanks guys! I've been in a drought for about 3 years now and this was the one to break it, gave me some confidence back. Watched and passed on a lot of deer for those 3 years finally paid off.

Wow congrats
I love my 308 bolt gun but my Marlin 30-30 lever and I have a relationship like no other. Mines a 74 model year and it's been through a lot of kills in its life.
Congrats on the kill iron sights for the win
