What did you kill your first Big Game with?

Nighthawk
Mine was a small antlered but huge bodied 8 Point with a Winchester 94 30-30. I can remember it like yesterday, I was sitting on a large rock about 500 yrds above where our cabin is now. It was very dry but the Deer managed to get within 25 ft of me and I never knew it until he jumped an old fence my Great Grand Pa had cattle in at one time. He jumped the fence and there is a Hemlock tree there which hid me. He was so close I didnt aim, hit him in the ribs, then he began to run and I aimed and put him down. I wish I still had that Winchester, I think O traded it for a Marlin 39AS with a scope.
