Default Red hind. My first deer. Not sure what forum to post in.

This is my first deer. I almost shot an Axis doe, but opted for the much larger Red hind instead. She's about 200lbs before field dressing (my guess). I took her with a Mossberg 100 ATR, .30-06 fitted with a Nikon ProStaff scope using a 165 grain Federal Vital Shok Nosler tip round. I made a beautiful neck shot at about 90 yards. The picture hides the exit wound (it's pretty nasty).

I can't wait to get the meat from the processor. I've never had red deer. I'm told it's second only to elk. yum yum.
