Long story short, it was 5 min before shooting time, pretty dark and a doe runs out in the plot. It was overcast and getting dark quick. 2-3 minutes go by with her looking around and Jordon saying “there is a buck back there somewhere” and he steps out facing us at 70 yds.
Just then I look to my left and a smaller buck comes out 30 yds from us (50 yds from the others) and heads to the other deer which is what we needed to turn the other buck for us. I told her if she couldn’t see him good to let him go and we’d see him later and then BOOM!! And she says “I got him dad, I seen him buckle” which I didn’t from the muzzle blast but I did see him going low, fast and in a straight line. I knew she hit him good. Went to the house to get a light and a bloody 45 yds later there he was. Perfect slight quarter to double lung and no guts.
I’m a proud dad fellas, as I know the rest of you dad’s are too.
