First deer

[Justin51]

Got my first deer this evening . A nice large bodied 8 pointer . Called it in with a few spaced out quick grunts . Deer appeared on the edge of the brush and started scraping on a small tree . 75 yard shot , bang flop . Stood up on the back legs and fell over dead . Lung/heart/Lung/offside shoulder broken . Shooting Sig Sauer Elite Copper HT 120gr out of a Savage 10 BA Stealth in 6.5 Creedmoor . Bullet did not exit , will post a follow up with a picture

For reference I’m 6’4” and 190lbs .

Congrats! If I call deer they run the opposite direction. Especially for your first too. You're doing something right. How did the kuiu gear hold up. Keep you warm?

Outstanding Congrats!!

I remember my first deer and how damn proud I was of that little forked horn. He was the start of many a great life adventures.

I hope you hunting path creates as many wonderful memories and relationships as mine. Keep the wind in your face and best of luck sir.
