Well thats not it guys, I had another tag so we went out looking for that big whitetail and couldn't find him anywhere. One of the ranchers said he saw it moving out yesterday, and it hasn't returned yet. So we came back around thinking that we weren't going to find anything for the night, until we came across the 5x5 whitetail below. Now he is a nice buck, we saw him off the back road and watched him go into a tree row. So we went around, got out of the truck and walked up on him to about 275 yards out. I leaned up on a hay bail and took my shot. Dumped him where he stood, took my eyes off him for a second, and my dad said he got back up, so I followed him with my scope, he ran about 50 more yards (hard to believe), and dropped in the trees. Went up to him gutted him out and couldn't believe he ran, his heart was blown in half literally haha. Then when we got him back to the truck we noticed his eye was missing to, he must have torn it when he went down. But thats it for my rifle bucks, now all I need is my archery and a few does and Im done. I love it... two nice clean kills in a row, doesnt get any better than that.

Sorry for the graphic pics, like I said I hit his heart and his lungs so he wasn't doing to good.
