I started hunting last year, went about four times. I hunted Sunday six hours, and yesterday from 0615 all day. At 1600hrs this buck came up small hill right towards me. Started to go behind two trees towards the left. As he came out from both trees I shot him broad side. Deer walked up hill right towards me then walked to my right and collapsed about 30 ft. away. Shot him at about 40yds .50 cal Omega, shot went through. Dressed at 124lbs. This was my first time even seeing a deer while hunting. Exited and shocked, hopefully won't be last. J

Nice Buck, now you will probably be hooked on muzzleloading. Isn't it great?
