Pics added !!3rd mulie down ! But this ones mine !!! FINALLY!!
« on: October 20, 2013, 02:21:59 PM »
Wow wow wow wow .... I wanted to cry, puke , and puke some more ...

Okay here we go got my buddy James his deer back at camp hanging we took off to get me one . Sense we set an atomic bomb off in my main area we hit another one of my spots and not a thing .... UNTIL 6:00 he stands up and starts feeding around 400 yards away .. I settle in for some long range shooting .. I'm shaking like a leaf ... I just saw horns and lots of them ! Not having my range finder I go old school and try my 500 bdc hits above his back and he takes off towards me side hilling ! So I reload he stops and looks up towards were he just was I squeeze he dumps rolls about 20 yards .... I'm like hell ya smoked em .. But no .... He gets up and sprints about 200 yards into some thick thick trees out of sight .. Remind you it's gotta be 6:20 ish by now it's frickikg  dark ... My buddy says relax you smoked em he's gonna die I those trees let's go back to camp and come back in the am ... So that's what we do . We get back to the sight of the shooting at 7:00 ish and just take it all in we end up hiking all the way over to were I know I hit him good didn't find a single drop of blood .. Now I'm questioning of I even hit him . My buddy looks at me and says you think he wanted to to belly rolls for fun ?? I laugh and say okay okay we keep our heads down looking for that red stuff ;) we look until about 11:45 and FINALLY I spot one tiny little pin drop of blood but instantly it's a moral booster I know I hit him now ;) we track tracks not blood now we make it into the trees across a huge sage brush area with no blood ... We get to the trees and just search I found another Pin drop :/ but it keeps me going .about 15 mins later after tracking little drops it turns to a lot of blood ... Few steps lots more blood ... And more blood ... But then gone .... I start heading down with some what looks like struggling walking .. And then I see it a huge mound of dirt ?? And branches and brush on it ?? BUT WITH ANTLERS STICKING OUT OF THIS PILE OF DIRT !!! Come to find out something else found my deer last night before me ... A cat I'm assuming ate out the guts ribs and rear legs and then buried it ! Craziest scariest most exciting few hours I've ever had ... He ended up being a 7x6 counting eye guards . Just extra stuff all over my biggest deer to date !! So so awesome  !! finally Roberts guide service :)) gets his own ! Hahaha thanks for reading guys ! Until next time!!

Crazy! Ive seen 2 other cases of critters beeting hunters to the kill. One on Big Mikes Elk in Montana and another one a friend sent me a picture of a deer their friend had taken and all that was left is the front end right at the shoulders and the head. The rest was bare bones

The cat probably didn't go too far, maybe 150 yds...was probably watching you.

Great buck! Congrats! Were you able to salvage any meat? :dunno: :tup:
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?

Lion also climb up tree and wait.    I would look around trees!  Always look up also go back same spot and set fox caller. Call them in!  You will get one for sure!   Don't miss your chance!

Congt on find him!  Go back next day!!!

Stud buck!  :tup: I'm glad you were able to salvage most of it.
I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I'm not!
