Awesome-looking deer! And what a proud smile!!!
Just curious... not trying to start anything at all... but most places around here you aren't allowed to take a firearm out into the woods with you. Obviously, you were legal if the game warden knew all about it, but just never heard of that before. And I guess I'd have the same question: Why not nock another arrow and keep it a pure archery kill?
Again, though -- congratulations! He's a nice-looking buck!
