I've got 2 so far in gun season... Heading out for a third this weekend (plus the meat from a 4th that a hunter on the family property is giving me)...
Small 8-pt buck (would have been if 2 weren't broken off, anyway), 1.5 years old, maybe 120# dressed... Usually save the heart the liver for the dogs... Saved the liver for the dogs, but the heart was literally 2 pieces... He didn't go far...
The doe that I got last Sunday morning was maybe 90# dressed, yearling... She dropped where she stood.
I hunt with a CVA Wolf .50 muzzle loader, with 245gr PowerBelts, over 150gr (3 x 50gr pellets) of 777, and a 777 209 primer...
