Nice Ala 8 pointer
I had a friend hunt on my place in North Alabama this past weekend. He caught this fellow walking down a logging road about 20 yds from where I shot a 8 pointer about a month ago. He was using a KRB I sighted in for him using 250 gr Knight poly tipped boattails and 105 gr of T7 loose. He said he was about 90 yds. The bullet ( no pics of wounds ) went in and shattered his spine so he was graveyard dead. This is a good sign because 3 years ago we didn't see any decent bucks. Now that we are taking only bucks with 4 on one side the heard is improving. I have 3 small food plots and we have 4 feeders. It isn't cheap but it is worth it.
