Yeah I'm thinkin. It was a fast shot, he came across my tree orchard. He wasn't gonna stop, so I mouth bleated to him and he finally stopped but was ansy. Pretty sure I shot just over the top of his back. Stupid me. Oh well. I'd rather have jumped the trigger and missed than made a bad shot and wounded him
yea or wet powder excuse lol
Well one thing I've learned over the years is that there are no gimmies when shooting at a deer. (bow or gun) No matter how close they are you still have to hunker down and squeeze off the shot. Been there myself and learned it the hard way!
Well I shot a 4pt yesterday am. about 140# not the biggest rack/deer for sure just as wide as its ears. Wife & kids want sausage made for sure, now they'll have it! I'll wait for the big guy in ML season. :rolleyes: Forgot, on way home giong thru Cowlesville I pass a Dec. officer he spins around flips the lites on & pulles me over. He checked out my deer & tag then looked at all my remaining tags, checked to see if my guns were locked in the cases, all was legal & ok! Then I drive down the rd. a 1/2 mile pass a state trooper ,he spins around and I get pulled over by him, what the hell! He checks truck regs., my license, ask if atv trailer is mine checks that regs. all ok, I ask what the problem was. He says he couldn't read the first 2 letters on my plate # due to my loading ramps covering the #'s. Then says he won't write me at ticket this time! I was thinking I am sure the 96 yr. old man that was beaten up in Buffalo would be upset to hear my #'s were covered up! unbeliveable.
congrats on ur deer
Thank you.
