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!

Well done young lady!
