He looked a lot better playing ring around the pine trees with a doe. I had about 10 seconds. Oh well it was all fun.
 
I don't know why I have to post pictures separately now.....

A wonderful rifle! Thank you for posting the pic. Prime eating . . .
 
I'm hoping you will enjoy the inside tenderloins (thinly cut and seasoned) for breakfast this morning with a couple of eggs, toast and hot coffee. Well done and a beautiful rifle.
 
Beautiful deer and beautiful rifle.
 
Beautiful rifle. I’m guessing there is a hole in that deer underneath the rifle. Otherwise it looks like he died of fright.

Perhaps the buck swooned at the thought of being shot with such a classic outfit! :giggle:
 
LOL.......thanks guys.
Very tiny entrance in the upper shoulder and about a 3/8" hole on the offside.....DRT.

I'm always thankful for the encounters afield and in your case you were able to continue a proud tradition with something so elegant. If only in the brief moment of recoil, the rifle could tell us its story; what a moment to be alive that would be.

I completely agree.

Between Blak Rock and Pocahontas, I did not want to say that on the forum. That's a nice Cat!

I'll take the Vortex scope cover you have listed in the Pay it Forward thread.
