My dad and I have been hunting together for 20+ years but this was the first time we've both taken a deer the same morning. What made it even more special, it was the biggest buck I've ever taken and I used a .243 he got me when I was 11 years old.. Getting to share that experience was awesome. Also, it's the first buck I've shot in a few years. Been waiting on a mature one that really got me excited. Had a couple does at the feeder and this guy popped out right at 0700 and started chasing them around. Gave me a broadside shot at 100 yards. Probably the best opening weekend I could have asked for.

Very nice! Congrats to you both!
If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.
Sometimes the Universe puts you in the same situation again to see if you’re still a dumbass.

What a beautiful buck. Congrats to all of you. Y'all hunting the 'Cross Timbers'? Just curious the county.
