Have seen him few times live and on camera, but Friday morning at 0930 with cold weather and overcast sky at 600 yards trailing a doe it was on. He never stopped to give me that perfect shot so at bout 80 yards before he ran out of sight under me I hit him on the move and he dropped right there. I been shooting SST, 165 gr. .308 for 6-7 years on most everything and have killed with it from now 80 to 450 yards and it's performed as designed every time. [Linked Image]

An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

Very nice!


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.

Thanks for the compliments. Our rut is weird this year. Seems like our does are coming in sporadically over about a two week period. I see a lot of does that bucks have zero interest in. Then, a little chasing, few bucks fighting making scrapes and rubs with an actual mount up mating session I saw yesterday morning. Carzy, 2 other bucks showed right after the deal was sealed and just hung around.

Just picked up my processed meat from Whitakers. I have 95 packages, all weighing over 1 lb 3oz. - 1 lb 5oz. Maxed out a 65, and a 45 qt cooler.
