  • Ended a 15 year drought yesterday

    Killed my first deer when I was 7, first buck when I was 9, and a butt load in between there and 18. But, after I graduated high school I hadn’t killed another. My Dad got permission for 20 acres about 25 minutes from my house that my cousins have both taken a buck on this year and I’ve sat twice. This guy walked out and I couldn’t help myself. 15 years of not shooting any big game animals and my trigger finger was really itching.

    Oh and those ELD-X’s are a deadly bullet. I had worked up a load here awhile back with 90 gr for my .243. I went to cut his head off and my Dad says “here I’ll grab the sawzall” and there was no need. Two or three strokes of the knife and it went through it. I shot him high up in the neck and the wound didn’t look bad from the outside but inside it had definitely left it’s mark.

      Congrats. That's a decent buck. 50 years of not killing a big game animal here. Unless turkey is big game.
