This reminds me of when driving to my spot a few weeks ago 4 deer almost ran into the side of the truck (one fawn was INCHES from the front bumper :yike: he said if I didn’t point out the deer to him he would have hit atleast one of them) and my father-in-law was like “I was about to let one in and bam, there’s our deer for the year” :chuckle:

Post by: Tiger1358 on November 07, 2018, 12:33:40 AM: Yep, something like that happened to me this year. Left the rifle in the car, took the shotgun and walked behind the gate to shoot a couple grouse before I'd go to my spot in the evening. Had 3 #6 birdshot shotshells in the shotgun and only walked like 300 yards and baaaaaaam, the bear is right in the middle of the logging road 40 yards away from me. I started putting the slugs in, but he disappeared in seconds :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:

You could've shot the cat with a handgun tho :dunno:

Post by: dan11011 on November 07, 2018, 12:11:13 PM: Very cool video! Thanks for sharing.

Does anyone else think the cat is walking kind of clumsily, and acting like he's never been on that terrain before? Obviously he has. :dunno:

Title: Re: Rookie mistake
Post by: getreal711 on November 07, 2018, 08:01:17 PM: I was just trying to figure out how to sneak out of the truck. Load and shoot without the thing high tailing it off. That is if I had a rifle with me and not just a video camera.
