a smaller iowa buck

I felt pretty good about this one until I seen the previous post.The only thing that makes me mad is I have a 300yd gun and my shot was under 40yds off hand.This is the first deer I shot with a 195bx and wow although he was close I think it would of took a 300 grain bullet out of a smoker to put him down as quick.

Congrats on a nice buck in anyone’s book.
I know what you mean about having the ability of taking longer shots and always having deer appear up close making it an easy chip shot.
Hey I’ll swallow my pride, take the shot and enjoy the harvest.

Nothing wrong with that deer. The bx is hard to beat for on deer performance.

Congrats great buck !

Wish I would of seen 1 like that in Woodbury Co. Iowa in 2006 when I made the journey. Everything was running wide open and most of 'em didn't have horns.

There won't be many (if any) bucks that tops iowamuzzleloader's buck.

What you shot there is very nice. Be proud. I plan for the long shots as well but welcome any shot inside 50 yds.......slam dunker.

When big deer are up close and personal and you can hear them walk, watch them skitter about after a doe, and watch their chests swell when they breath, it adds to the buzz of what I am about to do.
