The rut is on...

Shot this nice little buck back behind my house yesterday. It had been so hot around here that I just could not bring myself to go out until yesterday when we got a good hard frost.

I have always instinctively imagined a whitetails heart to be a little higher in the chest and spent a little time studying whitetail anatomy before going out.

On my second cup of hot chocolate when this walked past the stand. At the shot he flinched and took two slow steps before falling dead on his nose.

I used a Rage mechanical blade with about a 3" cut this time and it performed perfectly.
