USA: Whitetail Buck

[Christian Davis]

I was fortunate to harvest this whitetail buck on our little farm this afternoon. He's not a monster, but he's certainly a trophy to me, and I'm grateful for the experience of hunting him and taking him cleanly. I'll treasure him and the memory forever. Thank you for looking, and for indulging me in sharing the conclusion of a successful hunt!

Great buck! Where’s your place?

Very pretty buck!

 

[Flipper Dude]

Beautiful buck, well shot. Nothing like the feeling of walking up on your buck. Never, ever gets old. Congratulations.

Fantastic!! Congratulations!

He would be a trophy to me too in the NE Georgia Mountains.


I would put him on the wall.

I've stuffed two (Including my largest) that were not as nice as yours's today.



Congratulations!

You have a really nice buck on the ground !

I would be very pleased to have gotten one like that this year and, I am from a place where big bucks are supposed to be plentiful. Good for you, congratulations! John

You're missing a lot of critical information: firearm, ammo/load, shot distance.

Congrats on a very fine buck! Now, start coughing up those details...

What a great buck Christian, it is even more rewarding to hunt when you feel for the animal you kill. Enjoy the eating too.

Great buck! Where’s your place?

Thank you! We are fortunate to live on a small farm in the northwestern piedmont of North Carolina.

Thank you! I am going to do a shoulder mount. He's only my second buck, and my best one.

Good point Tundra Tiger! I used my Browning A-Bolt in .300 Win. loaded with 180 gr. Federal Trophy Copper I think right around 3000 fps. The shot was from my tree stand and was about 75 yards or so. The bullet did exit but seems to have performed very well. Small exit hole, minimal meat damage, and he ran about 50 yards and piled up.

Thank you! I definitely try to savor the experience, and to value being able to connect to and participate in the natural world through hunting. I plan to keep the backstraps and tenderloins whole, and the rest ground for tacos, spaghetti, burgers, etc. We love venison!

Awesome buck! Wish I had seen one as nice as yours. Was not to be though. Thanks for posting your photos!
