COOSEFAN Report post Posted December 9, 2008 Beautiful buck! I've been in a similar situation and we had to shoot into a dirt mound behind a bedded buck to get him to stand.....it worked like a charm and we were careful in doing it. If the buck blew out of there then no shot would have been fired, he simply jumped up and stood there giving us a good ethical shot presentation and I didn't see anything wrong with that. Just gotta know your limitations and stick to em'. Congrats on a great buck and thanks for taking the time to write up the story to share with us.......next time don't forget the camera !

JMP Report post Posted December 10, 2008 i know mathews, and i think there's some confusion here about what happened. he didn't shoot at nothing, nor was he unsure of his shot. he didn't fire a round hoping to hit something, or anything. he shot at the bush that he thought the deer was under. he had a clear shot at the ground beneath the bush he was going to hit. he was sure of his target (the ground beneath the bush), was sure there was not a deer in his crosshairs, though he knew he was shooting in the vicinity of the deer, and was hoping the shot would jump the buck up, which it did. he then hit the deer with the second shot or third shot and the deer went down. all in all it was a clean kill. people shoot at rocks across canyons all the time. that's all that happened. there just happened to be a 100" buck very near where his shot impacted.
