Sure was. He outweighed me by about 50lbs on the hoof. I got him about 45 minutes south of Ft Sill along the Red river. Next weekend I will hopefully put a few more down. Gonna be trying a new bait mix...
Sorry about that! It was actually with a borrowed Savage 12BVSS in .308. The scope was a Millett Buck Gold 6-24x56 and the ammo was cheap white box winchester softpoints from about 10 years ago.
I actually shot him at night and was surprised with the light gathering of the Millett. I didn't have any problems making the shot with just the night illumination, although lights were available. 6-24 was a bit excessive but it was what was available.
I had to borrow the savage since the wind was blowing around 30mph and I didn't want to take a 50yd shot in that wind at night with my bow. Now of course my buddy has been blowing me s**t that I used a rifle (of course he only uses rifle). I have since bought a savage 110 in 7mm rem and am hoping to blood it this weekend.
