I was thinking Mossberg 535 12ga pump but after reading some other post I am torn between it and my Henry lever action 22lr.

Congrats.

That stuff happens everywhere. Not only do poachers trespass and hunt on the lease I have in NC, but will also steal stands, game cameras or whatever they can get their hands on. We have even found deer with heads cut-off after they had been shot by these poachers. I definitely feel your pain.

Never used them myself, but my brother also shoots a 300 WSM and had similar results as yours.

I have to agree with some of the other post. Seems like recent research has proven that it is next to impossible to improve the genetics in a certain area. Let grow another year and see what happens.

Nice buck.

Wow!!!

Legal in NC, not legal in GA.

I agree you did the right thing and set a great example for your kids.

What a trophy. Great buck.

Congrats, great buck.

Great buck, congrats.

I have not been seeing deer at both places I hunt. I have hogs in GA. and coyotes in NC. Last weekend saw a pack of around 10 coyotes come through near my stand. They were moving pretty fast and I was unable to get the muzzleloader on them before they were gone. Should I look for new leases or try to rid both places of their pest?

Cool video. Thanks.

Nice buck. Congrats. Wish you could have found it before the yotes.

I have had a similiar issue with a former hunt club member. He would get so excited over a buck that he would always make a terrible shot and he always required a tracking job.

Congrats.

I agree, try to let him pass and see if you can get a quartering away shot.

Could have been a gut shot like most everyone else said. Wait till morning and go look for him then. That will give him time to expire.

Great buck. Congrats

Congrats.

Good luck on finding your deer. Let us know what happens.
