First hunt for my Brother Inlaw

[Brian27]

Took my 14 year old brother inlaw on the unit 27 Jr. Hunt this year and had a blast. We didnt bring home a buck but I gave him every chance possible. He shot and missed 9 times... Sunday morning the 3rd day of the hunt I glasses up a 4x4 muley checking out a bunch of does and made a game plan. well on our way to a down the ridge on our way to get a shot I looked up and saw this buck with a spike coming down from where I saw him going to where we thought we could shoot. He walked down and accross the ridge across from us getting closer with every step. We let him get to about 200 yards and my brother inlaw got set and fired. That buck jumped 3 feet in the air if an inch but only moved about 10 yards. he shot again and the buck Kicked his back 2 feet in the air. still only moving a little ways down the ridge getting even a little closer to us. At this point I told him to move over to a tree and use a branch because the sitting stance wasnt working out. He ended up shooting twice more before running out of shells in his gun and that buck walked down the ridge and out of site not a hurry in the world. I wish i had brought some shooting sticks or something to help him keep that gun from shaking all over the mountain side when he saw how nice that buck was.
