Tennessee Mountain Buck
I've hunted hard this deer season and all through muzzleloader season and now rifle season I've been seeing a few deer but only glimpses and no clear shots at any of them.......until this afternoon  .
Got an easy 40yd shot at this fellow around 1:45 as he was running a doe. Then the fun began......took me 3 1/2 hours to get this guy off the mountain. I'm getting a "little too long in the tooth" to be doing this solo  .
Don

30.06 shooting 180 grain accubond bullet.
Deer had an estimated live weight of 180 lbs.
8 point, very symetrical.

Beautiful buck, you did good.
My brother's Godson got one on the way home last night, did lots of damage to his car. He is ok though.
Have a blessed day,
Leon

Nice rack on that buck, 180lb is a lot of deer.
Now for the negative, there is no need to remind some
of us about, "long in the tooth".

That guy had been doing some serious raking by the looks of his top antler tines!

Nice Buck.
We have a lease close to home. Before I hunt I always check with the middle son to see if he will be hunting also or at least be available to come deal with the results of my shot.
Life is good.
