Well, my deer hunting season is done.

And, yes, I used the PTR-91 HKlone….why wouldn’t I? Its accurate, hideously reliable, and powerful enough to knock Bambi into the freezer. To be fair, however, at the distance I shot the deer at I could have used a pistol. It didnt even see me and just kept walking towards me. I let it get within, oh, 20 yards at the most, and dropped the hammer.

Three points per side with a little brow tine. Nice little buck. He’ll be made into steaks, a couple small roasts, and burger. I’m kinda glad that my days of getting up at 6am and wandering through the cold woods are over for the year.
