ya she didnt really have time for a second shot. My dad was all ready to back her up after her first shot. the buck was about to bolt and we needed to crack off another shot before he bounded off. Kinda sucks how it all worked out for her, but it was a fun trip and we're all just happy we got the buck down

WHOA!! Nice blackie buck, he is a toad. I'm sure the missed shot will haunt your sister for years to come, just don't let it happen to you :) :'(
funny you should mention that klikboom, it was 2 years ago within 5 miles from that spot i missed a huge 5x5 muley. it was my first, as well as my sisters first shots at bucks... Guess me and my sis have buck fever!

Too bad he couldn't wait until she got another shot. Thats too bad. Great buck.
ya it's too bad. But she didn't have a solid rest for the second shot. I think the fever got to her :chuckle: She was just happy to see the buck down regardless of if it was her shot or not. She's got a real good attitude about everything and i'm really proud of her for that.

Thats cool. As a father of three daughters, I often have empathy for the ladies out there.

Don't feel alone - took my brother and nephew to Pacific Co. where I used to bow hunt all the time. They both missed a rifle shot at the largest "blackie" each had ever seen. Guess they had a bit of "fever" also ! 'Course its not easy with all the brush and rain on the westside ....
:bash:
Guess I'll have to go down Saturday and show them how its done. :chuckle:
