I took this 10 pointer on the opening day of southern zone here in NY. I was sitting down for all of 10 minutes when I heard something moving off to my left. I used my bleat call and he came in on a full charge. I had to wait for him to turn broadside and then I took him with a single shot from my Ithaca 37 16 gauge Deerslayer. The deer dropped where he stood.

Here's my son trying to get in on the action

What I really like is the pic of the little guy! showed it to my better half even.
He is so cute!
Now out here we would call that a 4 pointer still a very nice buck.
( here we count one side and not the brow tine don't ask me why?)
But the little one is so cute!!!
I can see him in 14 years ya Dad but my buck is bigger lol as he loads it in the back of the truck.
Keep that pic for ever.
Did I say he was so cute?
