Here is my son with his 4x4 Whitetail shot in South Dakota, on our last day of hunting. We hunted hard for 7 days, and the rut was in full swing. Earlier he missed a 5x5, but was able to recover nicely with this one.

Thanks guys, I'm very proud of him. Unfortunately I didn't see him pulled the trigger, but he used my Weatherby Fibermark in 257 Weatherby. :) He is already making plans for next year's hunt. :) I think I've created a monster.....LOL Love it when a plans comes together perfectly.
 
Nice Buck! Congrats
 
Great buck, there's something awesome about a big eight!
 
Great buck! Love the shape of the rack and those long points (y) Looks like he's a big bodied buck too. Nice!
 
Great buck, good for the both of you. Forrest
 
Gorgeous animal!

Congrats to your son. The smile says it all.
 
Very good deer sir.....congrats to your son and the proud father.....!!!!!
 
Beautiful deer, congratulations!
 
Gotta agree with tarbe ... the only thing nicer than an awesome harvest is an awesome smile shared between family and friends who are sharing our beloved pastime.

PS And DAMN! I hope to see one that nice when I go hunting this weekend,
 
Thanks again guys, much appreciated! I'll have to say that it is a beautiful deer, and yes the smile my son continues to have is priceless. LOL!!!

Good luck Scott, get the big one!

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
