Minnesota Buck

Well, this buck was shot in Bemidji Mn. this year by my brother. It's an 8 pointer. Dear was following a doe along the back of his property. My brother was a long ways off when he spotted the deer. The buck was about a foot from the fence and ready to jump over.. My brother took 1 shot ahead of the dear, which hit the ground throwing up grass and dirt. The startled deer paused and began to walk slowly.. the 2nd shot landed near the collar bone, through the heart and out the oposite lung. Dropped on the spot.
