We had a good weekend. My buddy shot this weird 23 point deer. He drilled it at about 23 yards and it ran about 150 yards. It took about an hour to find. 2 weeks ago, he shot under the same deer. If you look at the under side of the deer, you can see the slight cut under his shoulder. My daughter shot her first pig with the Tikka 223 bolt gun. She was really excited about it. It was my first trip this year to break away and hunt some.

Very cool deer and great job by your little girl!
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

Weird deer for sure. Is that off the lease you are on? Congrats to the girl.
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations. RWH

Weird deer for sure. Is that off the lease you are on? Congrats to the girl. Yes, near Breckenridge. There is another one just like him on camera, but smaller. I'm not sure what's going on with all the cluster of points. He was 11 on one side and 12 on the other. There were multiple small points you could hang a ring on. Shot placement was real good. The deer was quartering towards him some, and exit was about mid way back, and caught the front of the stomach. Blood trail was good, just small drops to follow. Thank ya'll so much! It was good to get away for the weekend.

To bad your not on a place where you could have let that buck walk for a couple years. It looks like one of my buddy's 1.5 year old brood bucks. Those are possibly from the brood bucks that escaped the wildfires a few years back?

They make ammo specifically for hunting for a reason!
