Battle loser?
« on: November 22, 2014, 04:16:11 PM »
Saw this guy today on late archery hunt. Watching him thru the spotter, he appeared to have a slight limp on the right rear, but no visible injury. Then I noticed his left eye was closed/gone, and looking closer could see red/meat/blood around it. Assuming he got stabbed by an antler in a fight. Sure would like to see the one that bested him.
Saw a hunter a couple hundred yards away working towards him, so I didn't even get to try a sneak :(

I doubt it, the buck crossed over to another canyon, while the hunter was still 150yds to his right.

"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

Maybe he had a 150 yard pin and shot a Mathews :chuckle:

That's even funnier than trying to sneak up from the left.  Going to look for him tomorrow.
