Re: Shooter at last
The other shooter was at 280 yds .. and only popped out after a doe for a second then right back in the timber .. I was hunting field edge.. This buck had a hot doe and was warding off two small bucks that were after her.. so even after I shot him in the leg he would not leave her.. I just got lucky they all didn't run at the first shot.. but I will take it

Re: Shooter at last
My father always said I would rather be lucky then good. The deer Gods smile on each of of occasionally. Congrats on the hard earned buck. I have yet to get a shooter in my sights. Got a couple does in my fridge though. When does rifle start down there? Vic
