My dad took a shot at what he thought was a doe but turned out to be a button buck at 375 yards. Landed a lung/liver shot and dropped him were he stood. Upset it was a BB but impressed with the shot and grateful for some meat.

Never understood why one would be upset with a BB, but not a doe fawn?  

Both eat the same so why? Potential P&Y?  

Same doe fawn could have the same or better genetics as the BB. But every BB taken is considered as the next world record, but the doe fawn is just that..... a doe. 

Sorry, but it takes genetics from both parents to make something special.

Slow day in the woods in 8H. To make it even more painful, as soon as I got to my spot I received these cell cam pics from a property I hunted yesterday. Gotta see what the wind does tomorrow but will most likely try to make a move on him as he was trailing a doe and hopefully is still around

Not sure why the judgement over a simple statement. He/we’re grateful for the gift every time it happens, especially in these uncertain times. Neither my dad or I are rack hunters. We’re out there for the enjoyment and to provide for our family. He was upset that he misidentified the deer, not that he could have seen buttons at that distance, had nothing to do doe/buck.

45 yard shot went 30.  Super happy with him. His body looked huge when he was standing there but he only weighed 120 pounds. I had to check 2 different scales.

Congratulations Matt! Way to go buddy. Beautiful buck.

First time hunter this season. Got a small doe on opening day, perfect shot through the heart at about 50-60 yards. One on top is mine, bottom is a buddies. Will definitely never shoot that small ever again but what an amazing weekend it was. Not much movement at camp though. Will be heading out again soon to hopefully tag out. 20201121_075602.thumb.jpg.ef466e4ae481044e8926bfa21130ab39.jpgIMG_2406.thumb.jpg.0154e0884e61e2aa426690c6649d9a0f.jpg
