Took this 8 pt. last Thursday in a horizontal snow storm @ 3:45 p.m. in cover between a creek & a pasture. He broadsided at 25 yards. 140 gr. accubond from a 270 short mag.
Sorry about the blood on the antlers.

Great buck! Congratulations! Can't see the brow tines very well in the pics, got any more pictures? Long shot, too, where'd you hit him?
How much snow did you guys get?

B-stew...we got about 4-6 inches last thursday...didn't stay long.
Ith... hit him in the hair...that's all I saw at my lowest x setting ...j/k,shoulder bone fragment took out both lungs. Weak g1's (2 and 3 inches) but nice 2's & 3's, good mass, & 20" mains...guessing about 4 1/2 yrs.
Ovis....north central Texas...just below the red river...about 150 miles due south of OK City. Leased free range private land.

Oak...waxing gibbous near full moon.
CJ...thanks, I now consider you the smartest guy on HT.
Idaho Ron...I'd say body wise he's a tad smaller than most of the mature bucks in this area...he field dressed about 120...prolly about 25-30% off his pre-rut weight...like many of the decent bucks I've taken post rut, a little skinny, leggy, and hollow jowled...guess you could say the single life finally killed him. We will occasionally have one in this area that'll go over 200 lbs.
