Deer

So the Grendel spoke today. After watching 7 does and fawns move by my stand around 730 this morning,I was fortunate enough to spot this guy trailing behind about an hour and a half later.
One shot dropped him at about 120 yards using hundred and 20 grain Nosler ballistic tips.
To my surprise, he had the markings of a pie ball.

Interesting looking buck, sir!

Nice harvest. It does look somewhat piebald, doesn't it. What State are you in? Some States don't allow hunting of piebald, while others have lifted the restrictions.

How did the 120gr NBT do?

Just what I was thinking. Heck of a deer I would take lots and lots of pictures. You just do not get to see that to often. Nice trophy fo sure. Way to go. BANG BANG!!

Thanks all for the comments. I live in VT. and to the best of my knowledge it is legal to harvest pie ball (bald?)
Because I had a steady rest, I took a quartering frontal shot. The bullet went in between the neck and shoulder and exited opposite side rear ribs. The NBT preformed great! I was slightly uphill shooting down, looked like it broke the spine and ruined the liver and one lung was mush.
I usually aim right behind the front shoulder going for double lung and possibly heart.

I've heard stories of piebald and albino deer around. My pap got an albino buck. Never have met one alive in person. Tan that hide for a throw. too unusual to toss away with the guts.

Cool deer, one for the wall for sure.

[Adam Lilja]

I've never seen such markings! Cool!

Cool buck! I'd love to get a piebald like that.

[Blacklab]

Nice!!!!

Thanks all for the comments. Anyone have an idea what having the hide tanned would cost?

[jim_bob]

I've heard a price of $300 to get a hide tanned for a rug. That's in Roanoke, VA. I think the name of the place is Deer Tales or something like that.
