Today was the opening of antlerless season and a buddy and I went out on my property this morning. I took my SMR .45 mainly I had only taken small game with it and wanted to try it on deer. I heard a shot in the direction he was hunting and saw this small button buck running my direction.
It stopped about 40 yards from where I was in my stand and turned around andView attachment 107749 looked behind. One double lung shot with the .45 and it made about two circles where it stood and went down.
The shot my buddy made was on a larger doe and I'm assuming this buck was its yearling. It's not a very big deer but will make good table fare.
Don't look now but it looks like one might be taking a nap behind you. Good job. Will be some tasty eats.
