Default Kananaskis Bruiser - 1st Deer

My brother tagged this beast today in Kananaskis. His first white-tail. Collected the meat, head, and got the heck out of Dodge after a Game Warden that checked his tag/ licence kindly warned him that a Grizzly was in the area, and had recently chased another hunter off their kill. Ruger American Rifle, .308, 150gr, 100 yds, through the shoulder, clipped the heart, dropped within a few yards.
