Brody Crockett is back with another great buck

Wild Life hero shot veteran Brody Crockett killed this great buck on Election day, about 6 p.m. Here’s the story from his dad, Danny Crockett

“We were hunting on private land in the FortChiswell Section of Wythe County. This buck came out following two does .  The shot was about 120 yards. Brody was using a CVA Wolf 50 cal. loaded with 70 grains of triple 7 and a 200 grain shockwave bullet.

This was Brody’s seventh buck of his young hunting career. He turned 12 in October.”

Congrats, Brody! Keep it up, young man!
