RE: First Deer with my .243
our property has great potential for big bucks we have mostly oak and black walnut trees. Two year round streams, one half acre spring, three bedding areas and tons of rubs, good natural forage like crab apple trees, and clover, black berries, wild strawberries. It is a horse farm and while we are tending to the horses we see tons of deer you can expect to 50+ deer a day. There is also one 16 pointer but he rarely shows himself, I hope he survived the season.
