Well Bullblaster barely salvaged his reputation today! Zero deer moving in this downpour.  Chris decided to do a little push so we moved from our hay bail sanctuary and set the gun out for a prone shot as where they would come through was gonna be a medium range poke. 

Chris had barely left us when a doe came through. Sure enough, here comes a buck in hot pursuit! Addison got on the gun, found him through the very wet scope lenses, and got settled. I was able to stop him with a coyote howl and she torched one off. Hit wasn't perfect but it was good enough and he expired quickly! Took us a hot second to find him in the tall CRP but once we got him we made quick work of the knife stuff and got the heck out of the rain!
