Success ! !
My first buck and four other does taken in WV last week. I took the little 6pt without brow tines on Monday. He was the ninth deer I saw that morning. Took him at 8:10 AM. One shot from the Weatherby is all it took. I took the doe on the left in the truck with one shot as well on Wednesday at 8:02 AM. She was the 5th deer I saw that morning, but I only bought one antlered deer permit and one anterless deer tag. I call it a successful week. Packed the freezer.

way to go. looks like you used a 50 caliber arm rifle on the deer on the left! Is that gun a 300 mag?

Nope, that was my 270. I shoot 130 gr Fed Premium Sierra Boattails.......The shot was high on the spine and blew bone through the exit wound. It was pretty nasty, but not in a bad spot.
The shot on the buck was at <40 yards and put a nice quarter size exit wound. Low front shoulder shot right through the heart.
