Finally!!!

i have to thank my man T-squirrel "the guide" Straight for putting me on this monster runt of a 4 point(180lb). first shot in the woods taken with my new Thompson Center proHunter .280, first time to ever see a buck in the woods, first buck ever killed. this little fellow made the mistake of thinking he could daily eat at one of my best friends food plots. no telling how many times he went in there and ate food he didn't earn and didn't plant. he slipped out behind me at about 40yds, 6:40am...steady, aim, fire...one shot....BROWN ON THE GROUND!!! well sort of....it was not the best shot, no exit wound, no blood trail. to be honest i never would have found him except he ran and fell about 20 yds from where timmy was hunting. again, thanks squirrelio! many more to fall, my freezer is not yet full. anyone want to go hunting?
