A friend of mine had three deer hit him up in Michigan. It took out the entire driver's side of his 06 LT2. It was a $6500 repair.

Congratulations! the link doesn't work, just learn how to upload on this site and show us.
You may want to don your flame suit for the anti hunter/anti gun comments

That's cool! Nice deer for a first time buck! So the 44 Mag was a rifle not a hand gun...

How about this monster buck taken here in WI this last weekend...

Nice Freightliner...Congrats! I'd like to try hunting but I'm such a lousy shot I'm afraid I'd just wound it and not get a clean kill

Open sights at 50yds is pretty impressive

Practice man! Thats all it takes.

Thanks for the koodos!

I figured out the "img" thing on posting pic's so the opening post should now show properly. See, practice!

Practice is right Freightliner. It pays to spend a lot of time at the range prior to the season. That and calm yourself down with some deep breaths before you pull the trigger!

Here is a pic of me a couple years back with my favorite pistol "Black Betty"! She does pack a whallop. If you are not holding on to it tight with both hands, it is going to fly over your head!
