Passed on a bunch of young bucks, but wanted to get a deer with my dad's M-1 Garand. He is not doing good, and I wanted to get one before he passes. She was the first legal deer I saw with his rifle. 90 yard shot and it dropped with 150 grain CoreLokts. It isn't a great deer, but it means the world to me. He gave me this rifle a couple years ago, but never got a shot with it till this year.

Congrats,

That one will eat really well.

Thanks I usually only shoot older deer or injured deer, but made a exception this time.

Thanks everyone, this was the first deer I ever shot with open sights. Those sights sure look big on a deer at 90 yards.
