Decided to hunt with the Muzzleloader as it was still loaded
heard something behind me, waited, waited, waited some more, thought it was a squirrel, this guys show up over my right shoulder
shot at 0937, wind was still and the smoke stayed in the air, heard him crash but couldn't see
piled up into a blow down
I have not seen this deer on any of the cameras

Seen 3 maybe 4 small bucks one of which was chasing a doe.

Where's your daddy?

Shot my first deer since 2022. I thought he was bigger when I pulled the trigger but still proud of him. I shot him with my wife's grandfather's rifle that he left me when he passed away summer of 2023. Made me tear up a little bit. Sure do miss him and I know he played a part in taking this buck. First ever deer on "opening day".

Congrats buddy! I bet that he was right there with you.

Its a savage axis I bought him for his birthday in either 2020 or 2021 (I can't remember the year) topped with a leupold vx1 3-9x50. He never shot a deer with the rifle, last deer he shot was 2019 and let a pile of them walk. He was honestly one of the best hunters I've ever known.

Thanks bud! I feel like he was as well! To see the buck not just once but twice this morning was a blessing. I know he's in heaven smiling down on me using his rifle.

It was beautiful morning in north hall county, decided to give the .222 a chance, 80 yard shot, straight through lung shot. She ran 20 feet and dropped.
