Nice buck! I will not take any this year since I still have quite a bit still in the deep freeze. It sure is nice to watch them get real comfortable having breakfast or dinner in the front yard... next year..... KA-BOOOOOMM!

I'm just using an Alaskan mill. 36" inch as of now but when I get bigger trunks I'll modify it accordingly. I used my 460 magnum untill the 395 was broke in. What a difference with the bigger saw . 460 is 76cc the 395 is 94cc.
