Not quite as big as Uncle B's
« on: November 04, 2010, 07:50:00 AM »
But he is an 8 pt. and was the first one I had in shooting distance in 2 years. I need the meat too so I took him. Heart shot him at six o'clock and he made a dash through a ton of buckbrush. Heard him crash but didn't see him when I went to look so I blood trailed him.
 

Here is where he ended up at.
 
I was only 5 or 6 yards away from him at one point but couldn't see him.

Here is the damage a razor sharp Magnus one can do
 
And one more of him

Nice one.  Congratulations!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
