its tough to wait , cant help but get excited.  Hell sometimes i have to wait only because im shaking from shooting.  Good luck. 

Well I realize what happened. I wasn’t sure if I hit him or not, so I figured I’d just come down just to check. And sure enough there was blood, so of course I just began following it, without thinking.

Sleet is lucky right? Right?

One small  spike running up on neighbors To bad it's  not cold enough to shut these crow up again . This is the time I'e been getting cam a ton ..come on.

Good luck to the morning crew... I'll be out in 4L this afternoon.

Pretty close to taking either doe or buck at this point. Hoping to get a total of three deer this year, and I'm fortunate to have one in the freezer, but I'm not looking forward to late season hunts after last week's taste of Winter.

So loud this morning every squirrel sounds like a herd of Pope and youngs.  Heavy cloud cover keeping the woods pretty grey.

Deathly quiet this morning... Snowed pretty good all morning

Above the lungs

 

That’s a survivable, nonlethal wound

You can have everything going for you but if you don' have luck that year all the rest is for naught...

If it just went through the straps not the chest cavity and did not sever the spine then almost certainly.

Live from my kitchen, been watching a 120" 8 following a doe around my field for half hour. Rifle needs to open! I did bring my rifle up and dry fired it with him in the scope. 390 yards it would be a hell of a poke.

What do you guys think this guy will score? Either way it's a shooter in my book, I'm just curious. I think it's somewhere in the 120's but I'm not sure. I do apologize for the crappy pics.

Definitely in low 120s id say.

no one can know for sure except deer.  There are some arteries in different spots above lungs its all pending exactly where.  No one can know for certain if a hit like that is lethal or not.  Just be sure to do your due dillegence and check, thats the best you can do. If you dont find him , then it was prob a survivable hit. Ive recovered deer with that exact hit - 2 years ago a buddy shot an 8 point high and we found a dead deer next morn.  No lung shot but it bled out enough to kill it.  No one can say they know it lived , esp if they werent there.

He made an abrupt turn and headed downhill toward some thick brush, beyond which is a stream. Not sure if that means anything...

Shot a buck last night, found him this morning. Story in Harvest Thread.....

 

 

I've been on this forum for a number of years now.  A given here every Fall is Lawdwaz putting a nice buck down.  Sometimes two.  He does it every year.  Very impressive to say the least!

Apparently there’s a worm hole that I drive through and it pops me out in one of those Spots in east NY , where guys seldom see deer .

This made me lol
