Here is my son with his 4x4 Whitetail shot in South Dakota, on our last day of hunting. We hunted hard for 7 days, and the rut was in full swing. Earlier he missed a 5x5, but was able to recover nicely with this one.

Thanks guys, I'm very proud of him. Unfortunately I didn't see him pulled the trigger, but he used my Weatherby Fibermark in 257 Weatherby. :) He is already making plans for next year's hunt. :) I think I've created a monster.....LOL Love it when a plans comes together perfectly.
 
Nice Buck! Congrats
 
Great buck, there's something awesome about a big eight!
 
Great buck! Love the shape of the rack and those long points (y) Looks like he's a big bodied buck too. Nice!
 
Great buck, good for the both of you. Forrest
 
Gorgeous animal!

Very good deer sir.....congrats to your son and the proud father.....!!!!!
 
Beautiful deer, congratulations!
 
Gotta agree with tarbe ... the only thing nicer than an awesome harvest is an awesome smile shared between family and friends who are sharing our beloved pastime.

PS And DAMN! I hope to see one that nice when I go hunting this weekend,
 
Thanks again guys, much appreciated! I'll have to say that it is a beautiful deer, and yes the smile my son continues to have is priceless. LOL!!!

Good luck Scott, get the big one!

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)

Forgive me if this is the incorrect area, I signed up to this forum just now because I wanted to be on the list to purchase a copy of your autobiography. Please feel free to pass my information along to whomever is selling. Thank you so much. I look forward to it!
I like the Tillie in my picture. They are supposed to fit loose (2 fingers inside hat band), have mesh for cooling, and hold their shape after washing.
