I was just relaxing when I heard this doe trotting down the hill behind me. She caught me completely off guard, and I barely had time to stand up and grab my bow. I drew, anchored, and mouth-bleated her to a stop at 26 yards. After the shot, she ran perhaps 50 yards, stopped and swayed back and forth, then fell over.
Good shooting! Im anxiously awaiting the 458 SOCOM 2008 photo! |

The deer dressed out at 120lbs and has a 20" spread with 12 points. I think it's gonna be a non typical. Great looking deer. |

Arrowed my fourth deer of the season this morning. It's an 8-pointer that dressed out at 170 pounds. Not my largest rack or body, but still a good bow buck nonetheless. |

Buckfever34 and I are running neck and neck. We've both arrowed 3 does a piece, I took my 8-pointer yesterday, and he took his 8-pointer this morning. I need to arrow a coyote to tie the score.

Got Doe #4 for the year today.
Killed on Ft. Gordon 0745 this morning. 1 oz. Winchester BRI slug, Winchester 1300 slug gun. 5th deer of the year so she got donated to Hunters for the Hungry, while doing my part to manage the herd. A great weekend and I feel pretty good about my contributions if I don't say so myself. 
ETA: I have now killed deer on an Air Force, Navy and Army Base...I thought that was pretty cool to boot. |

Saw 27 deer in 2 and a 1/2 days. Waited and waited for Mr. BIG, maybe he will show up next weekend!

Well I had never hunted at all before yesterday.
I got this 8 point around 3pm with my Remmington .243 using 100g Core Lokt. ~150 yard shot right behind the shoulder blade. Through and through. Ran about 20 yards and dropped. Not bad for my first day! haha Crappy cell phone pics! http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b130/onefstsnake2/1112081732.jpg http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b130/onefstsnake2/1112082203.jpg http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b130/onefstsnake2/1112082203a.jpg |

It was opening day in MO today. I am about 35 miles east of Kansas City and hunt on a friends 40 acre farm. I have found a sweet spot where the deer cross in the mornings and usually get several at that spot.
It was cold this morning, then started sleeting and then snow started really coming down. Finally, it stopped. About 8 am after seeing nothing, I hear a low grunt and try to see where it is coming from. I hear it again and spot a decent size buck. I let him get into a clearer shot and shoot at about 50 yards. I think the bullet got deflected by a branch, fairly thick woods (my story and I am sticking with it). He ran down into the clear about 35 yards away and gave me a great broadside. I shot and hit him square through both lungs. He ran up a hill about 75 yards and dropped, could barely see where he went, but spotted him right away. Thankfully, he died right there on the hill and it was a nice easy drag bringing him back down and with the wet leaves on the ground. He is an 8 point, almost a 9, but one tine is not long enough. I am estimating dressed weight at about 165 or so. I took him with a JC Higgins Model 50 in .270 Win. topped with a Burris 2-7x using Remington 150 grain Core-Lokts. Kind of strained/pulled a muscle in my calf, so took the rest of the day off. I will spend the rest of the season killing does. The one good thing about being out of work is I can hunt every day of the season, well only part of the day on Wednesday, I have an interview with a recruiter. I usually get 3 on opening day at the sweet spot, put hurting myself put the kaibosh on that. Went home and napped for 4 hours.

Swamp Buck 2008
250 grain SST 100 something yards on the move, this deer was crusing from the timber line to the timber line, spine shot, end of story. 
ENTRY SIDE 
SPINE/VERTS broken... 
Thats all, thought you all would enjoy. Big Bores are more fun, period. 458 SOCOM still is tops in my mind but this thing is kind of wrecking shop in my hands... |

Great deer everyone!
Cold, congrats on your buck. Speaking of the .458 SOCOM, I shot a coyote with mine today. She was dead right there –– not even a flop. |

Not shy, just an idiot when it comes to this stuff. Here is my bow kill. He measured out to be just under 130" gross and his live weight was 228 pounds. 
My father-in-law took this buck out of the exact same stand exactly 8 days later with his shotgun.

This is the first Buck of the year. Shoot it at about 40 yards with my Ruger #3 in 45-70, it droped where it stood.
