Yeah, he was coming in quartering hard to me and I pretty ran it front to back.  Those 58gr v-max really cook.  The blood around the mouth was just from sitting in a pool after the shot.  The entry was actually in the front of the shoulder and the exit was in the rear leg.

Great pics. I tell ya, around here in the high ground of VA you can hear em. But your lucky to see any let alone get something like a 25yard shot at one.
Good hunting to you.
