For a 1 day hunt it was pretty exciting. Started out in a draw i know holds lots of deer trying to fill my nephews tag. We were hoping to get him a buck but knew he would tag out with a doe tag in his pocket. 5 minutes into out hunt i heard some shooting. Being separated from my nephew and my brother hunting with my old man i figured it was him. After sprinting across the hill to the location of the shooting i found it wasn't my nephew but a buddy that was able to get another his first buck. From there i drove to the top of the mountain where i had an opportunity at a buck the year before. The old man took my nephew down the ridge and my brother went with me into the hole i seen the buck the year before. On the way in we found a decent buck but by the time i was able to put 3 points on it he was running at about 200 yards. So yes i shot and yes i missed. Leaving that spot i became grateful as we spotted 5 deer in the aspens. all took off but one that stood frozen. My nephew put the hammer down with one shot offhand. Had i shot that buck who knows if my brother, myself, and my old man would have all been together to enjoy his first deer experience.
