First muzzleloader buck (pics)
« on: October 24, 2005, 10:45:53 AM »
:D  Hello

Here is few pics of a buck I got on Saturday morning. NEF Huntsman, 250 grain .45 cal XTP, in front of two 777 pallets. Range about 65 yds, double lung shot, ran for about 40 yds and hit the ground. Rack somewhere in mid 140's  8) . 290 - 300 lbs live weight, 180 lbs clean at butchers  :shock: ( no legs, no hide, no head and no guts)

Beautiful 4x4  :twisted:  8)  :lol:

Awesome deer.   Good shot with that muzzleloader.    Thanks for the great photos.   It takes a really good eight point to score 140 down here in TX.  Our live weight where I hunt is somewhere around 175-180 lbs on our mature bucks.    I'm jealous!

Thanks for the post.

What a deer!   Congrats are definitely in order.
The only thing I see in the area that I hunt (NJ/PA) anywhere close in size to your trophy, is usually spotted around the local dairy farms...but they're sporting UDDERS not ANTLERS!!! (lol)   :)
