Took a doe (pics)

Dropped this nice doe tonight, my first doe. Second deer with a muzzleloader. Actually have the hunt on tape, once I get the power cord for my brother's digital I'll be able to upload it online. Saw a lot of deer tonight, could finally take it no more and decided to drop the hammer on her. Not a monster doe, but fairly good size, as you can see my new Omega did the job quite nicely! Now I'll be out exclusively for a big buck that I've got meat in the freezer.

thanks, yeah I can't wait. Footage is pretty good, the kill shot isn't exactly "monster bucks video" quality, but you can see her fall, I can't wait to get that online, this was a hunt of firsts for me. First with the new muzzleloader, first doe, and first deer taken on video.

thanks guys, I'll have nicer pics in a little bit here, gotta get her cleaned up, the shot hit her in the jugular so she bled quite a bit.

I honestly lucked out on this hunt, I was aiming behind the shoulder, I don't know how it hit her where it did, I don't think my gun got bounced around and I had it zeroed in at 60 yards, she was about halfway that distance when I shot.

I got a pic of me with her, I didn't want to do a tailgate shot, but the wind and snow are howling outside so basically you wouldn't be able to see me. We're gonna take her to the processor tomorrow, if it calms down out I'll get a much better pic in the yard.

ok here's a nicer pic. Luckily the snow wasn't blowing this morning. I wanted to fold her legs under her, but she had gotten a little stiff in the past 2 days and I wasn't able to do it.

God, they had samples at the processor I ate 3 pieces and my mouth is just watering for more!
