Finally, after 4 year break. Edit: 5 year break.

EDIT: Checked my records. The last Deer I shot was a 9 point buck 22NOV2013. So it was 5 years since I shot one.

Finally got one. Using REX 2 Maker bullet 200gr, 5.5gr red dot Powder, out of a AAC model 7.

Entered just behind shoulder into heart and thru lung and shoulder on the side in the picture.

She was 80lbs field dressed. She still made it about 40 yds before hitting dirt. I had a good exit wound, but very little blood trail.

I must be getting old. It about killed me to drag her to my truck. :oops: :lol: wheeze, gasp, wheeze, gasp, etc..
Yes, I am a Baptist, and yes I carry a gun. You might think I carry a gun because I don't trust God. Well you would be wrong. I have complete faith in my Lord. It is mankind I have no trust in

Well done sir.

I take it she wasn't polite enough to run towards the truck?

No sir, she was very rude. She ran literally the complete opposite direction of where my truck was. And she ran down hill to top it all off. Just very rude all the way around. Although I will have to admit she was kind enough to give me a beautiful broadside shot. So there is that. She was in a group of four. She was the biggest
