My brother killed his best buck, the 8 pointer this past Saturday evening. Dressed 160 lbs. I killed the 10 pointer (I have the trophy rock hat on), 20" wide, dressed 175 lbs out of the same tree the same day right after sunrise. Savage 220, about 28 yards. One of our best days and for sure love spending time with my brother.

Congratulations. Two great looking deer. How do you like your Savage? Every so often I kick around the idea of buying one of those, just have never followed through with it.

Congratulations. Two great looking deer. How do you like your Savage? Every so often I kick around the idea of buying one of those, just have never followed through with it. I love the savage. I had my 7mmstw and the savage in the stand. where I was I can only shoot about 60 yards in front of me and 300 and 270 to my left and right. He walked right in front of my so I shot him with the 20 ga.

Way to go guys. Nice deer.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Beautiful buck. Your Brother looks like he's about to lose his to a "mountain lion".....
