Monster buck down

After 3 months, this bad boy finally showed up. My friend,Misfire,made a good shot using my 7mm which was loaded with Nosler Ballistic silver tips. The buck was shot quartering towards us and he took out 1 shoulder and exited through the offside lung. Buck ran maybe 40 yards. And yes, this was a HFed buck. Not trying to hide anything



Entrance


Exit(note the size of hole- no massive explosion)


Close up of exit

I bet it stunk when cleaning it

Nope, stomach was 100% intact

Glad that shot wasn't a little lower, might have been stinky, looks like Lung and Liver shot to me. Curious what was the distance for the shot and which weight BST did he use?

Shot was about 150 yards and those are hand loads with 150 grain bullets

Nice

Nice buck.

Um, Tye, that IS NOT a monster buck.

Monster hole

Hope you didnt over pay.

It's not?.....

But it's HF!

Congrats!

nice

Congrats Tye,

but I have read the other Threads on here about HF hunting and there is no way thats a HF buck

Congrats!

Congrats to your buddy tye.

Nice 6!

Congrats!

Nice going guys, congrats!

He didn't have to pay a dime for that one

Nice buck!! If you're happy, who cares if it was a HF or not!!

Lol

HF or not, that is an absolute brute!

Yep, we got lucky. No one has seen the buck since July. And since season started, there may have been 2-3 pics of him on trail camera. Besides, he going to help me paint my new AR.

My daughter shot it today and blew up a couple coke cans and clay pigeons. If a doe shows, she might be the shooter.

Lol Tye, nice cull off your place. C'mon guys, Tye has a HF ranch in Eastland Cty and they are just management hunting. Look at some of his other posts to get an idea of the quality he has out there. From what I understand, the deer on his place are all native, no genetic manufactured animals. I really thought he was posting a monster though!

Should have given him a few more years, then he would have been a trophy! He must have a lot of broken tines because there is no way a 6 point lives behind a high fence.

Lol, no broken points other than the brow tine. He was a 6 point last year at 2.5. No one saw him to kill him, so he survived. He was a monster that night compared to the other 2 bucks we saw that afternoon....both spikes

My daughter got her first deer with the AR last night too.

Congrat to you and your daughter!

Congrats on the doe!!!
