Great deer, congrats!

Good job!

My daughter’s very first deer was shot w/ a 350 Legend. We initially purchased a bolt action but the spent cases wouldn’t eject without seriously beating up on the bolt handle. Took it back and picked up a Ruger AR. Super glad the first rifle didn’t work out. She shoots this gun lights out...

A Remington 700 classic 35 Whelen would be nice

My hunting arrows are close to 475 grains. When light arrows were all the rage I tried them with disastrous results. I rather get hit with a fast straw than a slow crowbar. Weight matters.

I’ve shot a lot of deer this way and most have been in late season muzzleloader after they were very wary from shotgun pressure. I say go for it. There are too many variables to really give you much advice but you need to know where they are likely bedded and consider where they will likely go...

Congrats!

I’ve reduced the number of hunters on our family farm the last two years significantly. Here’s what I can say about the folks who lost permission. They showed up once a year to hunt. They had plenty of time to hunt but no time to help work. Most were seldom friendly. They all took permission...

Congrats, great buck!

Great buck, congrats!

Nice one!

Cameras bring A LOT of attention to really big deer. Enough that after this year, I wished they no longer existed. They have been very helpful in dealing with trespassers though. Some people will not quit until you catch them.

Nobody here hasn’t experienced the same, unfortunately it happens. It’s good you care about making ethical shots. A few mistakes I’ve made 1.) not shooting through both lungs 2.) shooting too light of arrows 3.) shooting more draw weight than necessary 4.) not trimming every limb in my shooting...

Congrats!

Nice!
