idgaf Report post Posted September 10, 2019 After ranging twice I settle my 3rd pin (sighted exactly in at 45 yards) on him and I release. I hear the thump of a hit. I notice a smaller buck running along side monica as chaos breaks loose, like I tried to assassinate the president. Bucks are running everywhere. I keep an eye on monica making sure I dont lose site knowing he/she will go down any second. I go to where I shot and look for my arrow. Nothing. no blood. I go to where I last see them and find a piled up deer and say to myself finally. I look at the horns and go where is the rest of it. For a fleeting second I wont lie to you and say I didnt consider going after the big buck. Apparently when I ranged the second time and the seconds it took to reaquire the target the little guy stepped in front of his dad enough to take an arrow to the face. I sat there reminiscing over the past couple of weeks. the bucks I missed, passed and seen and just laughed. Here is my monster strip buck. Hope you guys enjoyed the ride. the ending wasnt what I expecting either. 18 2 1 2 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twigsnapper Report post Posted September 10, 2019 The first Javelina I saw die was similar to this, between the time the arrow left my buddies bow and it making it to the big pig, a little oinker stepped out and took an arrow to the noggin, game over quick. My buddy was super pissed, makes for a good story. Great thread and good job, should eat good. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope you guys enjoyed the ride. the ending wasnt what I expecting either. Right in the face "IN the face" quote some movie I saw was funny as crap. heres my take on it, you had a heck of a time and saw a ton of deer both big and small. you hunted hard which is more then most guys will get to do in a lifetime. killing a buck big or small has nothing on what you did and Saw. I have more fun getting out seeing a ton of game then I do shooting them more memories too. BUT dang you got some awsum pics in this thread and found a few dead heads as well what more could a guy want. Congrats on your hunt I thought it was freaking awsum 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
