Thanks for all of the kind words guys. He shot the buck with a Horton 175 that has a red dot scope on it. He used Carbon Express Bolts and a Muzzy 100 broadhead. My FIL grew up out west hunting Blacktails and has been hunting a long time. I think it was more about filling the freezer when he was young than about antlers. My son will be 10 in Feb. and I am getting him in the woods a little this season. He may get lucky in the next couple of weeks. He can shoot the same crossbow pretty well. He just needs a stand to help him support the weight. I'll try to put him on a buck next week.
