Pepper Stick Buck

[JD338]

I shot this buck 11/15 here in MI with a 160 gr AB from my 280AI at 50 yds. He is a 1 1/2 yr old 6 pt, broke off part of his left beam.
Just the perfect size for some pepper stick. :wink:

Well done JD!! My season has been disappointing so far. 2 spikes seen opening day, 2 fawns the next day and 1 doe (the same one) each day since. I moved my blind today hoping to change my luck. But it is nice to see you have some vension for your "treats" :grin:

Right on JD, good for you man. You know I've seen your 280AI more than some of mine and it still looks gorgeous. Enjoy the backstraps.

My oldest son is absolutely certain that deer were put here on earth because they make great pepperoni snack sticks! :grin: He's not much on hunting, but is first in line to help me get the meat to the butcher, and always makes sure I order up plenty of pepperoni snack sticks. What a kid. :grin:

JD,

How about using that Thompson Pistol for a deer?
