LBK,
I was too poor when I shot my first deer. Here are pics of my first Whitetail and Mule deer shortly after I bought my first camera.
1965 - Ten point, 247# field dressed, Savage M99EG 250-3000
1966 - Mule deer on the left, 4X4, Rem722 .257Roberts. My uncle was fooling around and handed me an old single shot to pose with.
