Do they get deader if the shot was a little on?
After not getting a buck all bow season I was able to take one with my AR10 today. He was the 4th biggest we had been seeing on our trail cams but the other 3 were taken on Saturday morning by the guys on the neighboring property. He is the type of buck that I would have loved to see what he matured into next season but I couldn't be happier.
Great looking buck Dan.
Glad you got him, and looked like the AR10 did what it was supposed to do.
From looking at your photo's, I was surprised to see a license plate on the ATV.
Probably not so much being in NY, but we don't have to deal with that stuff here. And we have one of the best and largest ATV recreational parks in the country.

Great deer!
Congrats!!!
Not sure about NY but some here manage to get them registered as farm vehicles so they can use them on on the roads.

Thanks! He would have been a great buck if I gave him another year or so as he was only a 3 year old. I passed him up at 20 yards but when he gave me a second chance at 75 yards I took it.

My Uncles place is north east of deposit out near middleburgh, he has 115 acres, and at 2300ft when its raining down below its snowing at his place. We had 5 different big bucks (12, 2-10s, 2-8s) on camera opening day bow and the following day and never to be seen again. The buck I took was the only buck seen in person between bow and opening gun weekend???
Dan, this goes back awhile to my ex brother in law but I thought NY was strictly shotguns and slugs for deer. He was from the Allegheny area, east of Buffalo. PA is one of two states yet that doesn't permit semi auto rifle hunting for anything.
Nice hunting for those that got them so far and John, keep after that 10 point.
Certain counties in NY are shotgun only and some are even bow only. The rest of the counties you can use most rifles including ARs. I am the only guy that I know out of all my hunting buddies that uses one though. They think I am crazy until I let them shoot it
. I love having the 1-6x scope because there is never a shot that I can't clearly take with it. Plus I shoot thousands and thousands of rounds out of my .223 version so the gun is very second nature for me to shoot. I do wish I was able to hunt with a can on it as it is so loud when it goes off because of the muzzle break.
Nick buck!! My brother took a 4 point this morning but I've yet to see a buck aside from a button and a couple small does.
Im still hunting with a bow but I've not seen anything where a gun would have been desired.

Here is my 2014 shotgun buck. I got it weds morning on my families property. He came in chasing 3 does. I dropped him at 80yrds with my Mossberg 20ga. He's a 10pt and crab clawed on the right side.
