Opening Morning 3x4
« on: October 17, 2012, 03:56:16 PM »
Shot this buck at 7:30am opening morning. Was walking down a road and looked up the hill and see a buck. its a small two point so i just watch him as he walks down the ridge and he gets down a little way and i notice a couple more deer so i pull my binos up and see my buck. i see hes legal and hes about 175 yards up the hill so i get down on one knee and get him in my scope and pull the trigger. i was moving around quit a bit so after the shot i wasnt 100 percent i hit him but he didnt run off and was just taking a few steps around so i kinda figured i hit him at that point, he starts walking up the hill real slow so i put another one in him and he drops.  drug him down to the road and thats all she wrote.  Before i started gutting him my uncle calls and says he has a 4pt down so we got mine loaded up and went and helped him. our best opening morning yet.

If we were supposed to be vegetarian God would have made broccoli more fun to shoot!
"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?
