thats crazy. nice tree. dont see any pics of the buck, but congrats. i would NOT cut this tree down, b/c it will heal, and years later you will be able to pick it out and point it out to others. cool pic of tree from side. what kinda slug?
If the picture of the deer didn't load for you, then try clicking
here.
I would be surprised if the tree lives, the slug went right through the center, and splintered it pretty deep on the backside.
The slug was a Winchester Partition Gold slug.
