I wish all his tines were that long but I'm tickled regardless with him. he has good strong brows too. shot him walking at 80 yards dead center of the lungs, he walked a step and stood, so I put another through his ribs for good measure. both bullets hit within an inch of each other. pretty easy pack out to the truck with a friend helping me. he's hanging in another friends walk in cooler til saturday when we finish cutting him up. it worked out perfectly.
