Happy New Year all!
I killed this buck on December 7th. I'd seen him on November 8th while hunting with traditional archery gear. He didn't offer a sure shot that day.
I was using my 45 caliber flinter, built in a SMR way.
Shot at 40-50 yards, he made it about 100 yards.
Good luck to all here still hunting. I wish you safety and success!!
All the best, Skychief.

Nice buck, congratulations. That is one advantage of being a bow hunter, get out and see what's going on before gun season starts.

This guy has been holding out on us. He probably ate the back straps two weeks ago.

Skychief,
Congratulations! Outstanding buck!
On a slightly philosophical note, I have come to admire and love this way, or path, of traditional long rifles and hunting. Thanks for sharing your success.
Respectfully,
Paul

Out west we call that a "Hooter". Nice job, and a darn fine trophy.

Awesome whitetail. Looks like they are cross breading with caribou in your area.
