I have shot plenty of deer in my hunting career and I have been blessed. Most of which I do European Mounts (Thanks Skullworks). This one is special though. I hunt my private place. I have had it since 2018. I try to use best practices in land management, and trigger control. This is one I have hunted for 3 years. Yesterday was only the 3rd time I have seen him in the flesh. This was the only time he presented a shot. This is my personal best. Best of all I got to take him with my hunting partner of 16 years my son. Pics to come.

I’m sorry, but I did shoot him before he had time to get to the feeder. I guess I couldn’t debunk all the myths at once🤷🏻‍♂️.
