Had to make a real quick decision wether to shoot or pass and I choose shoot. Ended his getaway at 280y. Tikka 308

Thanksgiving Monday got my first archery deer. Big wide 8 pointer weighed in 250lbs dressed so it was a good first one for sure.

Controlled shotgun hunt. Dropped him with my Lakefield Mossberg 500. ~60 yard shot.

How have I missed this thread so far? Some beautiful animals here, congrats to all.

Nothing like that for me this year. I posted this one in Douglas' thread, but here's a little guy who came right up to the house to thumb his nose at me through the Venetian blinds on my den window.

And here's the even littler guy I smoked a few days later in the back 40.

Naturally, I don't have any photos of the magnificent long-tined 8-pointer who sashayed across the nearby field a day or so before the end of the season. Freezer trophies only for me this year.

Here’s mine.

T3 in 308. Had to drag him out of pretty crappy bush.

My buddy, his son and I hunted mule deer in southern Alberta this year. This is the boy with his first mulie buck, although he's shot a few does already. His dad is pretty proud.
