Cull Buck -Heart & Nuts
Rancher friend needed to shoot a deer for his foreman on another ranch. So, we set out this evening in cool temps with 20-40 mph wind gusts to cull a deer.
Set up on our usual knoll overlooking a low draw. After we put out corn, we set up laying on the ground and waited for deer to arrive.

With the crazy wind, it took awhile for the deer to move. First some does came out. Then, a year and a half old small 4. Then a young 8. Finally, a 2.5 year old narrow fork horn we decided was a cull.
My buddy put a 168gr Nosler BT from a .308 Winchester under the base of his chin and out the back of his neck at about 78 yards. Dropped like a stone.

Loaded him in the Mule and headed to the barn.

Gun control laws make about as much sense as taking ex-lax to cure a cough.
