I killed these does thanksgiving weekend. Just learned how to put the pics up. I was using buckshot and hit both of them. http://m1354.photobucket.com/albumvi...e.png.html?o=0

nice deer, i think buckshot is illegal here. Either that or no one uses it, i personally wouldn't. Nice deer though! how far away were they?

Nice size does! Yes, you can use buckshot in Pa.

is there a shot requirement like size wise? can i use 00 buck? i know one place thick in pines where its just deer trail tunnels, maybe ill give it a shot once.

We can't use buckshot here in Maryland.

isn't 1 shot 2 kills illegal?

glad you killed 2 vs. wounded 2...

Not if he had tags for both of them, but I would not be bragging about shooting 2 deer with one shot, especially with buckshot, because it couldn't have been very good shot selection and could have resulted in wounding, rather than a good, humane kill like you mentioned.

Nicely done on your first deer. Next time, wait till you have a solid, good shot on one deer, and then take it. This will save you a big headache later if you can avoid wounding one. But good job. HKPA, buckshot is legal ONLY in certain areas in PA. So be sure to check up on that.

Dont use buckshot kid. Buckshot is for people who kill deer not hunt them.

Not to take away from your first deer but there is not reason to ever be legally able to use buck shot for a deer.
